...Provides a valuable snapshot of present advances and plans for the future... Gogotsi has been outstandingly successful in persuading leading researchers to write seminal chapters that will enlighten both experts and beginners who have strong backgrounds in the physical sciences... Readers who want a global perspective will benefit from the sheer diversity of the material in the handbook, as will those who prefer to jump from topic to topic. ...From talented undergraduates to world experts, many readers will benefit from this book. --Ray H. Baughman, Nature Nanotechnology, Vol. 1, No. 1, October 2006 To my mind, the best section is undoubtedly that on carbon-based materials, and purchase of the book is probably worthwhile for these chapters alone... as a whole...the text truly justifies the title of handbook. For teaching, it is suitable as a reference for final-year undergraduates or masters level courses. For researchers, it provides a mine of useful information...thoroughly recommended. John F. Watts, Nanotoday, Vol. 1, No. 3, August 2006 The editor has collected a large number of review-type articles from scientists working on different aspects of nanoscience to achieve this goal, and it has indeed worked out very well ... the layout is attractive and the figures and graphics are well reproduced, resulting in a book that is very pleasant to read. -- Alf Mews, Universitat Siegen, in Angewandte Chemie, April 2007, Vol. 46, No. 13
