Overview

This book provides information to the state of art of research in nanotechnology and nano medicine and risks of nano technology. It covers an interdisciplinary and very wide scope of the latest fundamental research status and industrial applications of nano technologies ranging from nano physics, nano chemistry to biotechnology and toxicology. It provides information to last legislation of nano usage and potential social impact too. The book contains also a reference list of major European research centers and associated universities offering licences and master of nano matter. For clarity and attractivity, the book has many illustrations and specific inserts to complete the understanding of the scientific texts.

Reviews

The editors separate the field into three sections--physics, chemistry, and biology/medicine--with an in-depth introduction to each part, followed by a few more detailed chapters on respective applications. ... Overall, a very valuable resource based on the appropriate level of detail, organization, general cohesiveness, and inclusion of peripheral topics (to scientists at least) that should be studied and considered more often. Summing Up: Highly recommended. All library collections. (N. M. Fahrenkopf, Choice, Vol. 53 (9), May, 2016)
