The author is a life scientist who has devoted his life to protein research, filed hundreds of patents, and published over 270 research papers in leading international journals.

The book explores these various contexts. (Written by Kim Sunghoon | Woongjin Knowledge House)

The Federal Reserve's Way of Thinking: Reading the Flow of Money

The interest rate decisions of the United States Federal Reserve have a significant impact not only on the United States but also on the global economy. Interest rate hikes lead to a stronger dollar and cause capital outflows from emerging markets. Conversely, interest rate cuts increase global liquidity and revitalize asset markets. This is why the entire world pays close attention to the Federal Reserve. The author, a global finance expert with 20 years of experience, argues that the Fed's policies spread throughout the macroeconomy via three pillars: the real economy, policy, and financial markets. The book provides a detailed explanation of these three pillars and their interactions. (Written by Lee Jungwoo | RH Korea)

Neuro-Symbolic AI

This book explores the processes behind the outcomes produced by artificial intelligence (AI). Neuro-symbolic AI is a technology that investigates the basis for AI's decisions, attempting to combine deep learning (neural) with symbolic AI (logic-based reasoning). Leading global companies and research institutions such as MIT, IBM, DeepMind, and Tesla are already focusing on these efforts. The author argues that this is not merely a technological trend but a 'paradigm shift in AI philosophy.' Furthermore, the author advises not to fear the possibility of AI replacing humans, but instead to focus on how to coexist and cooperate with AI. (Written by Kang Yangseok and two others | Econ)
