From the reviews:
"The goal of this book is to provide the reader with the state of the art research and developments in the ongoing ‘bottom-up’ nanoscience and nanotechnology. … various readers with different backgrounds, physicists, chemists, biologists, materials scientists, and even medical doctors, will find some interesting and valuable information. Hence, the book will find a place in any multidisciplinary library. It will also be very useful to a scientist who has to write a research proposal in the nano-domain … ."
