College Korean offers a comprehensive introduction to the Korean language designed for American students. Rogers, You, and Richards have used their many years of teaching to devise and test an approach that balances reading and writing with the spoken language. The result is a well-rounded textbook suited to a yearlong course in which students learn to conduct conversations about their own lives and interests, read texts written in hangul, and write simple compositions. The book systematically introduces basic Korean grammar, a contextualized vocabulary, and styles of speech that are sociolinguistically appropriate for college students. Each of its 26 lessons contains a dialogue or a reading, practice patterns, relevant grammar notes, and exercises. Approximately 150 Sino-Korean characters are also introduced, and complete glossaries and grammar indexes are provided.

Imagine sitting in a pitch-black cockpit, accelerating rapidly down a runway and lifting into the night sky. Suddenly, your brain screams that the plane is pitching backward, about to stall and fall from the air. Panicked, you push the nose down to level out, only to drive the aircraft straight into the ocean. You have just succumbed to the Somatogravic Illusion. This phenomenon is one of the deadliest and most terrifying glitches in human neurology. When deprived of visual reference points like the horizon, the tiny fluid-filled canals in our inner ear cannot tell the difference between linear acceleration and pitching upward. The brain physically hallucinates a dangerous climb. This book dissects the horrifying aviation disasters caused by this biological design flaw. We explore the grueling instrument-flight training pilots undergo to mentally override their own screaming sensory organs and blindly trust their mechanical dials. Understand the lethal limitations of human evolution. Discover what happens when a brain built for walking on dirt tries to navigate the three-dimensional physics of the sky.
