Book Description
"Archeologists discover two skeletons, intertwined under the ash on the stairs of Kampara. Thus begins a story of Japan in the 1780's where Christians are persecuted for their faith, and women are bought and sold as merchandise. Tokugawa ruled and people walked to and from Tokyo, the center of government, facing untold dangers. The backdrop of this tale is the violent, Asama, erupting in 1783 causing damage and destruction. There is rich detail and historical accuracy as the story unwinds and the heroine, Mayami, is forced to run for her life. The question of survival for this beautiful young woman as well as the Kirishitans under a hostile government keep the reader enthralled." --back cover.

Book Description
By Scalpel and Cross: A Missionary Doctor in Old Korea is the story of a Presbyterian medical missionary told against the background of Korea in the first half of the twentieth century, decades before the astounding rise of South Korea. Young Dr. Archibald G. Fletcher arrives in 1909, just before Japan annexes Korea. The dramatic, little-read history of early Christian missions is part of the story, as Arch, assigned to Taegu, confronts appalling diseases, poverty, and the scourge of leprosy. The reader gets to know Arch and his wife, Jessie, through their relentless effort to provide healing, in body and also in spirit, and the artful blend of practical entrepreneurship and compassion in Arch's pioneering treatment of leprosy. The book overflows with the sights and sounds of old Korea, and the experiences of a Westerner pressing the advance of medicine under Japanese rule. Arch and Jessie's story includes setbacks and disappointments--destruction by fire of their home and the medical dispensary, Arch's bout with tuberculosis, internment during WWII--yet the narrative is inspiring and uplifting. The reader shares a sense of God's providence, and of esteem for the Korean people--their generous spirit, and their extraordinary response to the Christian message.

Book Description
Reviews various types of MLD processes including vapor-phase MLD, liquid-phase MLD, and selective MLD. Introduces organic multiple quantum dots (Organic MQDs) that are typical tailored organic thin-film materials produced by MLD. Designs light modulators/optical switches, predicts their performance, and discusses impacts of the organic MQDs on them. Discusses impacts of the organic MQDs on optical interconnects within computers and on optical switching systems. Presents proposals of MLD applications to energy conversion systems, molecular targeted drug delivery, photodynamic therapy, and laser surgery for cancer therapy.

Book Description
Among the many atomic/molecular assembling techniques used to develop artificial materials, molecular layer deposition (MLD) continues to receive special attention as the next-generation growth technique for organic thin-film materials used in photonics and electronics. Thin-Film Organic Photonics: Molecular Layer Deposition and Applications describes how photonic/electronic properties of thin films can be improved through MLD, which enables precise control of atomic and molecular arrangements to construct a wire network that achieves "three-dimensional growth". MLD facilitates dot-by-dot—or molecule-by-molecule—growth of polymer and molecular wires, and that enhanced level of control creates numerous application possibilities. Explores the wide range of MLD applications in solar energy and optics, as well as proposed uses in biomedical photonics This book addresses the prospects for artificial materials with atomic/molecular-level tailored structures, especially those featuring MLD and conjugated polymers with multiple quantum dots (MQDs), or polymer MQDs. In particular, the author focuses on the application of artificial organic thin films to: Photonics/electronics, particularly in optical interconnects used in computers Optical switching and solar energy conversion systems Bio/ medical photonics, such as photodynamic therapy Organic photonic materials, devices, and integration processes With its clear and concise presentation, this book demonstrates exactly how MLD enables electron wavefunction control, thereby improving material performance and generating new photonic/electronic phenomena.
