/"... the basic physics and chemistry of the technology presented will
not be challenged for the foreseeable future, making this book an
excellent time enduring reference, and the articles will provide a
historical perspective, in the respective areas of nanotechnology, for
past and future trends and directions in nanoscience and nanotechnology.
The articles contained within the book are very well written, making
them a pleasure to read. They also include high quality colour graphics
that provide, for the reader, an elegant visual connection to what is
being discussed in the text."/ -- Assembly Automation, Industrial Robot,
Sensor Review
This book contains 35 review articles on nanoscience and nanotechnology
that were first published in Nature Nanotechnology, Nature Materials and
a number of other Nature journals. The articles are all written by
leading authorities in their field and cover a wide range of areas in
nanoscience and technology, from basic research (such as single-molecule
devices and new materials) through to applications (in, for example,
nanomedicine and data storage).
