Book Description

This expanded and updated edition of the 2007 version introduces readers from various backgrounds to the rapidly growing interface between biology and nanotechnology. It intellectually integrates concepts, applications, and outlooks from these major scientific fields and presents them to readers from diverse backgrounds in a comprehensive and didactic manner.

Written by two leading nanobiologists actively involved at the forefront of the field both as researchers and educators, this book takes the reader from the fundamentals of nanobiology to the most advanced applications.

The book fulfils a unique niche: to address not only students, but also scientists who are eager (and nowadays obliged) to learn about other state-of-the-art disciplines. The book is written in such a way as to be accessible to biologists, chemists, and physicists with no background in nanotechnology (for example biologists who are interested in inorganic nanostructures or physicists who would like to learn about biological assemblies and applications thereof). It is reader-friendly and will appeal to a wide audience not only in academia but also in the industry and anyone interested in learning more about nanobiotechnology.

Editorial Reviews

Review

It is a very handy introductory book on the dialogue between biology and nanotechnologies that can be very useful both to a novice and to a seasoned nanoscientist. The former will be very directly and profitably introduced to the main principles, achievements, and current trends in both research and applications of bionanotechnology. The latter can use this book as a receptacle into which his or her fund of knowledge can be fed and organized within a very schematic and well-articulated framework one that can be easily expanded and updated.Angewandte Chemie International Edition

The book deals with a complex topic, but presents the material in an engaging and compelling style that offers something to both the general reader and subject expert.Plenty of Room is superbly underpinned by subject specific, peer reviewed material and enhanced by some beautiful illustrations. It’s a delightful and detailed overview of an emerging area of science.The Biologist

This interesting book reports all the knowledge necessary to understand the real meaning of bionanotechnology and the advancement we could have in a near future from the use of the nanostructures in the different fields of food, cosmetics, electronics and medicine. Depicting the diversity of the research areas impacted by the nano effect, the readers may find innovative ideas to go on with their own specific researches in which they are involved.Journal of Applied Cosmetology
