The Chinese word xin, which primarily denotes the heart organ, covers the meanings of both "heart" and "mind" as understood in English, which upholds a heart-head dichotomy. In contrast to the Western dualist view, Chinese takes on a more holistic view that sees the heart as the center of both emotions and thought. The contrast characterizes two cultural traditions that have developed different conceptualizations of person, self, and agent of cognition. The concept of "heart" lies at the core of Chinese thought and medicine, and its importance to Chinese culture is extensively manifested in the Chinese language. Diachronically, this book traces the roots of its conception in ancient Chinese philosophy and traditional Chinese medicine. Along the synchronic dimension, it not only makes a systematic analysis of conventionalized expressions that reflect the underlying cultural models and conceptualizations, as well as underlying conceptual metaphors and metonymies, but also attempts a textual analysis of an essay and a number of poems for their metaphoric and metonymic images and imports contributing to the cultural models and conceptualizations. It also takes up a comparative perspective that sheds light on similarities and differences between Western and Chinese cultures in the understanding of the heart, brain, body, mind, self, and person. The book contributes to the understanding of the embodied nature of human cognition situated in its cultural context, and the relationship between language, culture, and cognition. 410 0$aApplications of cognitive linguistics ;$v12. 606 $aXin (The Chinese word) 606 $aHeart$xSymbolic aspects$zChina 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aXin (The Chinese word) 615 0$aHeart$xSymbolic aspects 676 $a495.1/81 700 $aYu$b Ning$f1954-$01042892 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454352903321 996 $aThe Chinese heart in a cognitive perspective$92467503 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02796nam 2200601 450 001 9910140625003321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a1-119-12094-2 035 $a(CKB)2670000000610018 035 $a(EBL)1977628 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1977628 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1977628 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr11048183 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL770242 035 $a(OCoLC)904400172 035 $a(PPN)226302601 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000610018 100 $a20150225d2015 uy| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $2rdacontent 182 $2rdamedia 183 $2rdacarrier 200 10$aDNA engineered noble metal nanoparticles $efundamentals and state-of-the-art-of nanobiotechnology /$fIgna?c Capek 210 1$aHoboken, New Jersey :$cJohn Wiley and Sons, Inc. ;$aSalem, Massachusetts :$cScrivener Publishing LLC,$d2015. 215 $a1 online resource (675 p.) 225 1 $aAdvanced materials series 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a1-119-12093-4 311 $a1-118-07214-6 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aNucleic acids -- Noble metal nanoparticles -- DNA-based conjugates -- DNA-noble metal nanoparticle conjugates -- DNA-gold nanoparticle conjugates -- PNA-noble metal nanoparticles conjugates -- DNA-silver nanoparticles conjugates -- The structure of DNA-noble metal nanoparticles conjugates -- Photochemical and photophysical events -- Nanoparticle therapeutics. 330 $aThere is a growing interest in the use of nanoparticles modified with DNAs, viruses, peptides and proteins for the rational design of nanostructured functional materials and their use in biosensor applications. The  challenge is to control the organization of biomolecules on nanoparticles while retaining their biological activity as  potential chemical and gene therapeutics. These noble metal nanoparticles/biomolecules conjugates have specific properties and therefore they are attractive materials for nanotechnology in biochemistry and  medicine.   In this book, the author review work per 410 0$aAdvanced materials series (Scrivener Publishing) 606 $aNanobiotechnology 606 $aNanotechnology 606 $aBiotechnology 606 $aMetal clusters 606 $aNanoparticles 615 0$aNanobiotechnology. 615 0$aNanotechnology. 615 0$aBiotechnology. 615 0$aMetal clusters. 615 0$aNanoparticles. 676 $a579.2/4 700 $aCapek$b Igna?c$0767441 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910140625003321 996 $aDNA engineered noble metal nanoparticles$91928656 997 $aUNINA
