The term 'functional polymer' can be problematic, meaning different things to different people. In this book, it is taken to signify a broad area of polymer science and engineering involving the design, synthesis and study of macromolecular materials of increasing structural sophistication and complexity, useful for a wide range of chemical, physicochemical and biomedical processes. Throughout, there is a particular emphasis on the use of functional polymers in the emerging technologies and the design and property requirements that variously obtain. . . . This is a splendid and diverse work which will . . . achieve its eponymous ambition to serve as a desk reference. In total, 3763 references are cited. The prospective tone and insightful quality of most of the chapters should ensure its utility and relevance over a reasonable period. It should be considered seriously for acquisition by research groups working in the area of functional polymers and their applications. --Polymer International
