This book provides real stories about the South Korean semiconductor community. It explores the lives and careers of six influential semiconductor engineers who all studied at Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) under the mentorship of Dr. Kim Choong-Ki, the most influential semiconductor professor in South Korea during the last quarter of the twentieth century. Kim's students became known as "Kim's Mafia" because of the important positions they went on to hold in industry, government, and academia. This book will be of interest to semiconductor engineers and electronics engineers, historians of science and technology, and scholars and students of East Asian studies.
"They were called 'Kim's Mafia.' Kim Choong-Ki himself wouldn't have put it that way. But it was true what semiconductor engineers in South Korea whispered about his former students: They were everywhere. ... Kim was the first professor in South Korea to systematically teach semiconductor engineering. From 1975, when the nation had barely begun producing its first transistors, to 2008, when he retired from teaching, Kim trained more than 100 students, effectively creating the first two generations of South Korean semiconductor experts."

商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書提供了關於韓國半導體社群的真實故事。它探討了六位有影響力的半導體工程師的生活和職業生涯，他們都在韓國科學技術院（KAIST）師從金忠基博士的指導下學習。金忠基是二十世紀末韓國最有影響力的半導體教授。金的學生因在工業、政府和學術界擔任重要職位而被稱為「金氏黑幫」。這本書將對半導體工程師、電子工程師、科學技術史學家以及東亞研究的學者和學生感興趣。
「他們被稱為『金氏黑幫』。金忠基本人可能不會這樣說。但韓國的半導體工程師對他的前學生傳言是真實的：他們無所不在。...金是韓國第一位系統地教授半導體工程的教授。從1975年，當該國剛剛開始生產第一批晶體管，到2008年他退休為止，金培養了100多名學生，有效地創造了韓國半導體專家的前兩代。」（資料來源：《IEEE Spectrum》，2022年10月。）
作者簡介
Dong-Won Kim is a historian of science and technology. After receiving his Ph.D. in the history of science from Harvard University in 1991, he was a professor and dean at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST). He has also taught at Johns Hopkins, Harvard, the National University of Singapore, and the University of Pennsylvania as a visiting professor or lecturer. His major research fields are the history of physics and the history of science and technology in Korea and Japan. He has published several papers on these subjects, as well as two monographs: Leadership and Creativity: A History of the Cavendish Laboratory, 1871-1919 (Springer, 2002) and Yoshio Nishina: Father of Modern Physics in Japan (Taylor & Francis, 2007). His next project is on cosmic ray research in the first half of the twentieth century.
