Due to the many changes over the past two decades, the bilingual courses I now teach at Cornell University and NYU Shanghai differ greatly from the Business Chinese courses I taught at the beginning of my teaching career. Although language instruction is still important, the business component -- often informed by knowledge of history and culture -- has become central to the course. This book is the culmination of my collection, selection, and editing of video materials over a decade. It reflects a combination of my teaching experiences at three universities and continual deliberation and revision. Forty years have passed since China started down the road of reform and opening-up. Although many of the trials and tribulations that China has experienced in the past four decades are far beyond the scope of this small book, all of the cases introduced here touch upon important historical aspects and demonstrate different perspectives when "China met the world." My hope is that readers of this book will appreciate the exciting and critical moments when China changed the world and the world changed China, so as to be intellectually more ready to envision the larger challenges that China will inevitably face when it continuously "meets the world." I also hope that the readers all over the world will gain a deeper understanding of Chinese language, history, and business culture through the bilingual resources that follow.

Birck Builds the Future: Celebrating Twenty Years at Purdue University, 2005–2025 commemorates the vision, innovation, and enduring impact of the Birck Nanotechnology Center. This richly detailed volume traces Birck's journey from a bold idea—sparked by the urgent need for state-of-the-art facilities to support cutting-edge nanoscale research—to its emergence as a global leader in semiconductors and quantum research. The book highlights the center's founding under Purdue's then-president Martin Jischke and its role as the anchor of Discovery Park, a hub designed to foster interdisciplinary collaboration across the fields of engineering, science, pharmacy, and agriculture. Featuring contributions from early visionaries, faculty, staff, and students, the narrative blends personal reflections, historical milestones, and technological breakthroughs. It also chronicles the tenures of Birck's five directors—Jim Cooper, Richard Schwartz, Tim Sands, Ali Shakouri, and Zhihong Chen—capturing how each leader shaped the center's evolution. Replete with vivid photographs and architectural insights, the book celebrates two decades of transformative research, education, and industry partnership. As Birck enters its third decade—propelled by a $100 million renovation supported by the Purdue Board of Trustees, Purdue President Mung Chiang, Lilly Endowment Inc., and CHIPS Act funding—it stands as a cornerstone of the university's innovation ecosystem, preparing the next generation of researchers and shaping the future of nanotechnology.

This volume in the series, Translational Bioinformatics, provides an up-to-date overview of genomic approaches to asthma. By applying unbiased “-omics” combined with disease-focused and hypothesis-driven approaches, it enhances readers’ understanding of the asthma endotype. Furthermore, it elucidates how progress in -omics research, such as “genomic,” “transcriptomic,” “protomic,” and “metabolomic,” is applied in asthma, and reports on the related series of important breakthroughs in asthma development, classification, prevention and drug sensitivity. Also covering systems biology knowledge and methodologies, computational models and biostatistical methods to analyze big data, this book provides a valuable resource for scientists and researchers in the field of asthma and respiratory diseases.
