Nature has long used nucleic acid aptamers and enzymes for regulatory activities, such as the recently discovered “riboswitches” involved in gene expression. The existence of a large array of natural and artificial functional nucleic acids has generated tremendous enthusiasm and new opportunities for molecular scientists from diverse disciplines to devise new concepts and real applications that take advantage of those nucleic acids for sensing and other analytical applications. This book provides a timely and comprehensive overview of recent advances in the field, from leading experts in biology, chemistry, and engineering. A variety of topics are covered, from fundamentals of functional nucleic acids, to their applications as sensors, to nanotechnologies; as well as integration of functional nucleic acids into practical analytical systems.

Electrical Conductive Adhesives with Nanotechnologies

“Electrical Conductive Adhesives with Nanotechnologies” begins with an overview of electronic packaging and discusses the various adhesives options currently available, including lead-free solder and ECAs (Electrically Conductive Adhesives). The material presented focuses on the three ECA categories specifically, Isotropically Conductive Adhesives (ICAs) Anisotropically Conductive Adhesives/Films (ACA/ACF) and Nonconductive Adhesives/Films (NCA/NCF). Discussing the advantages and limitations of each technique, and how each technique is currently applied. Lastly, a detailed presentation of how nano techniques can be applied to conductive adhesives is discussed, including recent research and development of nano component adhesives/nano component films, their electrical properties, thermal performance, bonding pressure and assembly and reliability.

There have been two great shifts of power on the world stage during the past five centuries: the rise of Europe following the Industrial Revolution, and the rise of the United States after its Civil War. As we speak, a new power shift is beginning to take shape: the rise of Asia. Leading Asia's charge toward the world's center stage are the reemerging powers of China and India. To answer and adapt to such new challenges, the United States must develop a thorough understanding of the society of China.

Fundamental Technology Skills for Teachers contains thirteen well-developed modules, focusing on the contemporary foundation technology skills that can be used to improve teaching and learning.    This book can also be used as a self-paced study guide; each module was developed as an independent unit. When using for a class, the instructor can determine the sequence of the modules, or select any module that fits the particular goals of teaching. Demonstrating the most current technology in education, the modules have been continually revised to keep up with the rapid development of technology over years. Before the next edition of this book, further updates on the materials, if any, will be posted on this website: http://wolfweb.unr.edu/homepage/liu/textupdate/

Focusing on contemporary technology skills to develop educational multimedia applications,  Multimedia Technology for Standardized E-Portfolio: Design and Implementation contains fourteen well-developed modules sorted into three sections: 1. Multimedia Technology Applications; 2. Web Page Design; and 3. Electronic Portfolio.  Products from the first section can be used as the contents of a technology portfolio. The second section introduces skills to deliver an online portfolio. The last section reviews the procedures of design, development, and implementation of an eportfolio. After completing this book, students will be able to create an e-portfolio CD and an online portfolio. This book can also be used as a self-paced study guide; each module was developed as an independent unit. When using for a class, the instructor can determine the sequence of the modules, or select any module that fits the particular goals of teaching.    Demonstrating the most current technology in education, the modules have been continually revised to keep up with the rapid development of technology over years.

Multimedia Technology for Standardized E-Portfolio: Design and Implementation

Known as "Li the Shareholding Guru," economist Yining Li has had a significant impact on China’s economic transition, most notably as an early advocate of ownership reforms in the state and other non-private sectors and in his promotion of shareholding theory, initiating the drive towards a modern corporate system in China. The thinking behind these and other landmark contributions that have helped to reshape China are featured in Chinese Economic Reform and Development, a collection of seventeen influential essays written and published from 1980 to 2015. Incorporating original research, policy proposals, and theoretical thinking, these essays trace the development of Li’s thought and the process through which the "China Miracle" has been worked over the last four decades. This updated new edition introduces how inextricably linked Li’s academic work has been to the development of a distinctively Chinese path of economic reform.

La Chine de la première moitié du 20ème siècle a connu de nombreux bouleversements dont la fin des dynasties, les mouvements pour la république, les Seigneurs de guerre, de multiples invasions ... Elle a aussi vu son milieu culturel et académique s'épanouir. Pendant cette période, la sociologie chinoise contemporaine a pris forme, s'est développée, et a exercé une influence non négligeable dans le monde intellectuel. La variété des approches et la qualité des recherches en sociologie ont atteint un niveau remarquable. Les travaux réalisés durant cette période constituent un héritage précieux et une base solide et incontournable pour les recherches contemporaines en la matière. Après l'arrêt de toute recherche sociologique pendant presque 30 ans (les années 50-80), il est important et intéressant de faire connaître les chercheurs qui ont bâti la sociologie chinoise d'aujourd'hui, ainsi que leurs travaux, aux étudiants et chercheurs de nos jours.

One of the most famous love stories of all time Set against the dramatic backdrop of the American Civil War, Margaret Mitchell's magnificent historical epic is an unforgettable tale of love and loss, of a nation mortally divided and a people forever changed. Above all, it is the story of beautiful, ruthless Scarlett O'Hara and the dashing soldier of fortune, Rhett Butler.
