    Life is all about transitions. Changes. We encounter experiences and peoples, and our life is never the same after that. In his new volume of poems, TRANSITIONS: POEMS, dedicated to three Cambridge University graduates, the poet H. C. Kim beautifully explores wonders in human experiences. Kim's artful skill as a poet is the Impressionistic way in which he is able to capture events, people, experiences, and life. The reader is guided through a life's journey as if in a cinematic experience. Poems come alive and invite the reader into the world of fantasy and poetic empathy. Kim's poems are good for reading at the beach for relaxation as well as for more intense analysis into metaphor, symbolism, and socio-cultural significance. H. C. Kim is quickly becoming not only a commentator on modern life and experiences but also a poetic muse-prophet of possibilities and hope. Those who have enjoyed his other poetry volumes, such as GOING THE DISTANCE: A POETRY COLLECTION and TOTAL DEPRAVITY: POEMS, will particularly appreciate his artful addition to "poetry-in-motion" that is quickly becoming a genre in its own right.

    TOTAL DEPRAVITY: POEMS bring together poems that explore love, passion, and human sensuality. The poems highlight sensual beauty in the mundane patterns of daily life and celebrate the beauty inherent in the feminine form. The collection contains metaphoric poems exploring feminine beauty and sensual expression in today's technological devices, such as the USB cord. The following stanzas are from "The Printer on the Table": ---- As wet ink flows Inside her wide-open entrance Buzzing her being The wooden board underneath her shaking in excitement My paper goes into her Deeper and deeper As her finely oiled machinery turns and turns In her constant lubricated state I do it again As she certainly requires more paper I feed my paper into her back Pressing gently ---- TOTAL DEPRAVITY: POEMS guides the reader through a sensual journey to the heights of the seventh heaven and into the depths of total depravity of human experience in aesthetic transparency.

    "A very exciting book on Koreans in the United States!" This book is very helpful for understanding the nature and the history of the Korean community in the USA. There are over one million Korean-Americans in the USA. Despite the small number and a short immigration history, Korean-Americans have been able to contribute to America in important ways. Korean-American students generally comprise the biggest block of ethnic minorities in Ivy League universities and other leading research universities. The current Yale University Law School Dean is Korean-American. A Korean-American has been the leader of the biggest Presbyterian denomination in the USA. Korean-Americans can be found all over the USA in every profession, and they have been very successful. And, perhaps, the Korean-American community is the most evangelical Christian ethnic community in America. In fact, many InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and Campus Crusade for Christ leaders in America's major universities are Korean-Americans. How is it that Korean-Americans came to play such an important role in the American society, particularly in the area of religion? This is a very good book to understand what makes the Korean-Americans "tick." Particularly insightful are the ways in which Christian Kim, the author, captures general patterns for the Korean-Americans and their successes. This is by far the best introductory book on Korean-Americans in the market and will be very useful for use in classroom settings, both on the high school and college levels, in courses dealing with ethnic studies and the Asian experience in American history and society.

  • - Suggestions for Political, Educational, and Economic Reforms to Survive 21st Century Global Competition
    av Otto Tien-Pok Xing
    456,-

    "The most revolutionary book on China in this century!" Will China be the leading global power of this century? Otto Tien-Pok Xing argues that China is set to be the dominant superpower in 10 years. In his book, FRIENDLY ADVICE FOR THE FUTURE OF CHINA: SUGGESTIONS FOR POLITICAL, EDUCATIONAL, AND ECONOMIC REFORMS TO SURVIVE 21ST CENTURY GLOBAL COMPETITION, Xing makes a convincing case for why China will beat out all other nations, including the United States and Europe. But Xing argues that this potential success will not be realized if China does not make the needed reforms in the areas of politics, education, and economics. Xing's intellectual prowess is in his ability to bring together historical experiences, such as Ancient Roman history and the American frontier experience, to highlight China's areas of needed reform. Readers will be awed by Xing's versatile command of vast information and his ability to integrate divergent facts and data to produce concrete utilitarian suggestions. Xing is forward in stating that if China does not take his advice, it could be China's undoing. Reading through the book, readers will find Xing's arguments convincing. Although the book is in the style of "a big letter" to be presented directly to the Chinese leadership in Beijing, all readers (both Chinese and non-Chinese) will find the book informative and enjoyable to read. Xing writes in a very readable way. Even those who have no knowledge of China will find the book fun and understandably informative. Given the accessibility, Xing's book is ideal as a textbook for an introductory college course or an advanced high school courses on Asian Studies and International Relations. Although the book is very readable, it contains very advanced information that even the most advanced specialists in Chinese Politics, International Relations, and Economics will find helpful for their academic research. And certainly, Western corporate executives and businessmen doing commerce in China cannot go without this book as a constant reference.

    av Christian Kim
    200,-

    "Do you want to find out CHRISTIAN ideas on POLITICS? This book is for you!" CHRISTIAN BODY POLITIC is a book that tackles difficult questions regarding the Christian perspective on the relationship between Church and State. Leading Christian thinkers and activists discuss such questions as: Did Jesus support the Death Penalty? What role should the Church play in government? What does the Bible teach about governing authority's legitimacy? Is democracy the only Bible-approved government? Professor Stephen Joel Garver has been teaching philosophy courses to students at La Salle University in Philadelphia, PA, for a long time, and Prof. Garver shares insightful thoughts on the concept of Jesus as King. What does it mean for our modern society? Professor Cliff Bates, who is teaching political science at the University of Warsaw in POLAND, shares his insights on the concept of the State and Christian responses to it. Prof. Bates discusses the issue of the Holocaust as well. Rev. David Kim, who is a major leader with an evangelical student campus movement, shares his wisdom on the idea of the City of God. If Christians are citizens of the City of God in Heaven, how does that identity relate to Christians' life on earth. Is there a relationship? Does it matter? Rev. Lee Irons, who hosts a Christian think-tank, The Upper Register, gives an informative account of the the current evangelical-reformed discussion on the relationship between Church and State and offers some of his own ideas. The editor of the volume, Christian Kim, presents cogent arguments about Jesus Christ's attitudes about the Death Penalty.

    ARE ENGLISH JEWS RESPONSIBLE FOR 9/11? AN EXAMINATION OF THE HISTORY, PROBLEMS, AND CAUSES is a timely book for understanding Global Terrorism. In a daring foray into examining causes for the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States of America, Devdas Pradesh dives into a difficult question that has not yet been asked in a serious way. Were English Jews somehow a contributing cause for the 9/11 attacks on New York City and Washington, DC? In the process of addressing the question, Pradesh tackles interesting aspects of English Jewish history and experience. Particularly insightful is Pradesh's discussion of the development of Jewish self-understanding on individual and communal levels within the Jewish communities in England in light of the larger, global context of Jewish history. This book is informative and provides much food for thought and discussion. Anyone who has any interest in the causes of 9/11 cannot go without reading this book. This book can be used as a source of discussion in book reading clubs, high school settings, and church settings. This book can also be used to complement college level courses on Terrorism, Conflict in the Middle East, Jewish Studies, and History.
