Extractions: It may come as little surprise that the majority are drawn from the fields of science and technology. It's the intellectually broad-shouldered area to which Asian Americans have contributed most remarkably so far so much so that some may be tempted to dismiss these as routine or pedestrian. That would be a shame. Each profiled scientist came by his light through long, uniquely lonesome and intensive effort, and each illuminates a uniquely exciting frontier of human thought.

Extractions: Updated on Jan. 29, 1998 Chih-Yuan Kuo ? (1921-), born in Miao-Li, Taiwan, is one of the prominent composers in Taiwan. During the occupation of Japanese in Taiwan, Kuo went to Japan and began his musical training with Shimizu, Sukata Mero, and Ikenuchi Yochiro. He was inspired by the western composers of nationalism, namely, Dvorak, Smetana, and Rimsky-Korsakov. This inspiration later led him to adopt Taiwanese folk tunes and Taiwanese theatrical music into his compositions. In 1967, he went to Japan again to study with Ikenchi Yochiro and Shibata Akio at National Tokyo Arts University. This time, he began to compose more music using the materials of Taiwanese folk songs. Ming-Chung Sheu, ? (1955~) is the director of the Music Department of Taiwan Junior College of Home Economics. Dr. Sheu studied piano with Lu Chun-chen, Kuo Chien-ling and Hsu Hung-yu. He received his bachelor degree from Chinese Culture University. He came to United States to study composition with Lawrence Moss and Mark Wilson and received his doctor degree of Music Art from University of Maryland at College Park. Sheu? compositions include string quartets, chamber music, chorus pieces and solo instrumental works. Among his many honors are the second prize of the Washington Friday Morning Club International String Quartet Composition Competition and the third prize of Carl Maria von Weber International String Quartet Composition Competition at Dresden in 1989.

Polanyi, received the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1986 for his role in the development of chemical-reaction dynamics. Lee was educated in Taiwan and at the University of California at Berkeley (Ph.D., 1965). He did postdoctoral work at Harvard University and Berkeley and then taught at the University of Chicago from 1968 to 1974. He became a U.S. citizen in 1974 and moved from Chicago to Berkeley, where he continued his research. As a postdoctoral researcher, Lee experimented with and further developed Herschbach's invention of the "crossed molecular beam technique"a technique (derived from elementary particle physics) in which beams of molecules are brought together at supersonic speeds under controlled conditions to allow detailed observation of the events that occur during chemical reactions. Lee extended Herschbach's technique, introducing mass spectroscopy to identify the products resulting from the reactions of oxygen and fluorine atoms with complex organic compounds.

Extractions: Lee, Yuan T. Yuan Tseh Lee was born on November 19, 1936 in Hsinchu, Taiwan. His father is an accomplished artist and his mother a school teacher. He started his early education while Taiwan was under Japanese occupation - a result of a war between China and Japan in 1894. His elementary education was disrupted soon after it started during World War II while the city populace was relocated to the mountains to avoid the daily bombing by the Allies. It was not until after the war when Taiwan was returned to China that he was able to attend school normally as a third year student in grade school. His elementary and secondary education in Hsinchu was rather colorful and full of fun. In elementary school, he was the second baseman on the school's baseball team as well as a member of the ping-pong team which won the little league championship in Taiwan. In high school he played on the tennis team besides playing trombone in the marching band. Besides his interest in sports during this time, he was also an avid and serious reader of a wide variety of books covering science, literature, and social science. The biography of Madame Curie

Extractions: A burning flamea little everyday miracle that has astonished and fascinated most of us. A chemical reaction that produces heat and light and that during historical times has modified the conditions of life for mankind and made developing civilizations possible even on our northerly latitudes. But at the same time also a chemical transformation in which the products formed slowly have modified our atmosphere and most likely will also affect the earth's climate. Press conference and reception at San Francisco Airport for Yuan T. Lee, Nobel Prize recipient with Melvin Calvin (left) and Glenn Seaborg (right). From the point of view of natural science a burning flame is an intriguingly complex phenomenon. Oxygen molecules in air react with carbon and hydrogen in organic molecules. A manifold of primary products are formed, often unstable and reactive. Atoms are torn away from their parent molecules. The products of one reaction become the reactants of another. Dozens or even hundreds of molecular reactions occur in parallel. It is a scientific challenge to unravel the details of these transformations.
