Most of the illustrations are appropriate and enable a deeper understanding of the scientific arguments. Chapters are on topics such as tissue engineering, microfluidics, biosensors, molecular electronics, and photochromic devices. Each chapter starts with short definitions of terms or phenomena and provides clear explanations based on physicochemical proofs, combining structural characteristics given by molecular interactions with adequate thermodynamic and kinetics approaches. Each chapter ends with a reference list. The book is accessible to senior undergraduate and graduate students in materials chemistry and physics. * MRS Bulletin * The book is accessible to senior undergraduate and graduate students in materials chemistry and physics. At the same time, this monograph is also useful for specialists in materials science and engineering, providing stimulating ideas for further advances in materials design mostly needed in nanofabrication. * MRS Bulletin *
