Editorial Reviews
Review
From the reviews: Nanotechnology in Dermatology is the first book ever published dealing with the emerging trends in the application of nanotechnology to the scientific study of skin, and the clinical translation of this knowledge to diagnose and treat skin disease. A clear plus of this book is the shear diversity of topics covered that will appeal to and inform all stakeholders, including academic scientists and students, industrial research and development personnel, clinicians, regulatory agents and, most of all, the public.
