Sensors for measuring and detecting chemical and biological
substances are comprehensively used and are, for the most part,
unobtrusive. They can help monitor our health through alerting us
to chemical or biological changes in our bodies, our environment
through checking air quality or pollution levels and they can
contribute towards a more sustainable future. Polymer-based sensors
are the subject of much attention due to their ability to collect
molecules on their flexible sensory surfaces. However, most
petroleum-based polymers are not renewable, leading to problems of
waste-disposal. By using renewable materials, such as paper, cotton
or starch, these problems can be overcome. This book reviews the
current state-of-play in renewable-material-based chemical sensors
and biosensors, and suggests applications in industry, environment
and biomedicine.
The book is a collection of texts by the late former President of
the Republic of Korea and Nobel Peace Prize laureate, Kim Dae-jung,
along with contributions by other authors including the late former
President of the Federal Republic of Germany, Richard von
Weizsacker. The manuscript aims to explore the significance of the
combination of a cosmopolitan vision and an Asian identity found in
the political thoughts of Kim. This book holds special significance
as it is edited by Professor Sang-Jin Han, one of Kim's most
trusted political advisors, as well as longtime friend - with their
relationship stretching back to way before Kim was elected
president. As one of Korea's leading intellectuals, Professor Han
is best positioned to make the most out of the material since he
simultaneously holds the privilege of a close personal relationship
with Kim as well as expert scholarly understanding of its academic
and philosophical value.
