Reviews

The book is written by well-recognized experts in the field, and it is also thoroughly edited. ... Chapters from the first edition have been updated, and many new chapters have been added. ... the references are timely. Overall, the book is a success. It is very timely and useful, and the price is affordable. There is a broad community of potentially interested readers. There are researchers and, of course, graduate students working in self-assembly and nanotechnology, materials chemistry, hydrogen bonding, molecular recognition, and supramolecular chemistry in general. Not only science and engineering libraries, but also many individuals may benefit by having a copy of this excellent book on their bookshelf. - Dmitry M. Rudkevich, University of Texas at Arlington, in J. AM. CHEM. Soc., Vol. 128, 7110-7112, 2006 ...761 fascinating pages...richly illustrated...this book is a must for people who are interested in this discipline or for those who are keen to keep up with new cutting edge technologies. -Hans Misiak, Chemistry & Industry, October 2006 This book provides an outstanding and comprehensive review of supramolecular polymers. ...The contents of the chapters have been extensively updated from what was in the first edition of this book published five years ago. The organization of the chapters is very well done...The editors have done an excellent job in presenting the book in a thoroughly revised and updated form. In general, the book provides tutorial information and should be useful to the non-specialists...who want some basic information about the designated topic area. ...A nice collection of reviews covering various aspects of supramolecular polymers...Recommended as a valuable resource.
