Polymer News

...in this book the editors have done a great job in making different chapters coherent and complementing, even down to the style of writing and the emphasis of areas of coverage. The production of the book is to the highest quality, including the unusual use of colour photographs, when necessary, to good effect.
Materials World

...provides a refreshing antidote to the hyperbole which is tended to surround this subject... beautifully produced.
Chemistry World

... it is highly recommended for all libraries that serve researchers working in nanoscience.
E-STREAMS

... this is a worthwhile contribution to the mainstream nanoscience literature.
Advanced Materials

Therefore, the book is especially interesting for chemists who want to gain insight into the entire spectrum of nanoscience.

Die Bucher sind ein guter Einstieg um sich mit dem Thema der Nanomaterialien vertraut zu machen? Ich denke, dieses Buch ist vor allem fur Personen, die sich fur Nanomaterialien interessieren und sich auch uber einen langeren Zeitraum damit beschaftigen wollen, geeignet.
Hexenkessel, Uni Stuttgart

Vor allem das breite Themenspektrum macht dieses Werk so interessant. ...Das Buch ist fur den synthetisch arbeitenden Chemiker ein guter Einstieg in das Thema Nanomaterialien und bietet ihm die Moeglichkeit, uber den Tellerrand hinaus zu schauen; Fachleute koennen sich mit dem Buch, vor allem wegen des ausfuhrlichen Registers und der zahlreichen Literaturzitate, schnell einen UEberblick verschaffen. ... Insgesamt kann man dieses Buch ... uneingeschrankt empfehlen.
Nachrichten aus der Chemie

Alles in allem ist das Buch zur Begleitung von Vorlesungen in den Studiengangen Chemie und Materialwissenschaften bestens geeignet.
Angewandte Chemie

Die drei international ausgewiesenen Herausgeber, der Inder Rao, der Deutsche Muller und der in den USA lebende Brite Cheetham verkoerpern nicht nur selbst internationale Spitzenforschung, sie haben sich der internationalen Elite auf dem Gebiet der Chemie der Nanomaterialien als Autoren der 21 Kapitel versichert.
... Ich kann das Buch uneingeschrankt allen Materialwissenschaftlern empfehlen, die sich mit der Synthese und Anwendung chemisch erzeugter Nanomaterialien beschaftigen.
