The Yin and Yang of American Culture
Based on over thirty years of conversations and interactions with Americans and Asians, Korean American Eun Kim presents American virtues and vices from an Asian perspective, using the ancient Asian concepts of yin and yang, which coexist in everything and complete each other to maintain cosmic harmony. In this way, Kim draws us to look at the yang (light) mirror of American vices and the yin (dark) mirror or American virtues. Examples of the virtues she discusses are generosity, competitive spirit, openness, and volunteerism. Some of the vices she explores are insistence on rights, refusal to grow up, arrogance, and tolerance of violence. In her fifty entries, the author describes and illus...
Sound Propagation
In Sound Propagation: An Impedance Based Approach, Professor Yang-Hann Kim introduces acoustics and sound fields by using the concept of impedance. Kim starts with vibrations and waves, demonstrating how vibration can be envisaged as a kind of wave, mathematically and physically. One-dimensional waves are used to convey the fundamental concepts. Readers can then understand wave propagation in terms of characteristic and driving point impedance. The essential measures for acoustic waves, such as dB scale, octave scale, acoustic pressure, energy, and intensity, are explained. These measures are all realized by one-dimensional examples, which provide mathematically simplest but clear enough phy...
Materials for Devices
From everyday applications to the rise of automation, devices have become ubiquitous. Specific materials are employed in specific devices because of their particular properties, including electrical, thermal, magnetic, mechanical, ferroelectric, and piezoelectric. Materials for Devices discusses materials selection for optimal application and highlights current materials developments in gas sensors, optical devices, mechanoelectrical devices, and medical and biological devices. Explains how to select the right material for the right device Includes 2D materials, thin films, smart piezoelectric films, and more Presents details on organic solar cells Describes thin films in sensors, actuators, and LEDs Covers thin films and elastic polymers in biomedical devices Discusses growth and characterization of intrinsic magnetic topological insulators This work is aimed at researchers, technologists, and advanced students in materials and electrical engineering and related fields who are interested in developing sensors or devices.

Covalent Materials and Hybrids
Moving through the historical evolution of traditional amorphous 1D organic polymers to crystalline 3D networks, through 0D molecular cages and 2D frameworks, this book takes the reader on a journey on how covalently bonded materials and their hybrids can change the material world through applications relevant to energy, water and the environment. Looking at future demands from the materials that we use, strong, heavy and thermodynamically stable metals have been independently taken over by carbon allotropes and analogous materials. Equipment and instruments are becoming smaller and lighter, with research driving towards future organic materials with advanced physical, chemical, mechanical a...
Fluorescent Chemosensors
This book will bring together world-leading experts, to describe the current state of play in the field and introduce the cutting-edge research and possible future directions into fluorescent chemosensors design.
Emerging Faith
In non-Western contexts, Christianity has often been viewed as the religion of foreigners with a hidden political agenda. Sharing the gospel in non-imperialistic ways can be challenging, particularly in Asia. Every location to which God calls his messengers has its own rich history that should be shared with gospel workers and local people. Those desiring to serve interculturally must learn as much as possible about the past before joining that history. Are we learning from the past, or are we simply repeating the same mistakes in our own times and places? No culture in the world is a blank slate; rather, we can look for the initiating, inviting work of the missio Dei already emerging from w...
