Reviews

This book gathers an outstanding collection of scientific, technological and practical aspects of biomaterials. It will be useful for researchers and surgeons as well as PhD students, who would need to get an overview of the concepts and the most recent achievements in this field. Written and coordinated by international scientists, Trends in Biomaterials will undoubtedly stand as a reference book for the coming years. -Prof. Lionel Montagne, University of Lille, France The mostly updated studies collected in the book Trends in Biomaterials prepared by the worldwide experts G. P. Kothiyal and A. Srinivasan are addressed to a broad readership ranging from master's students to experienced researchers from different branches of science: physics, chemistry, biotechnology and medicine. The topics covered in the book are related (but not limited) to bioactive glasses as well as polymer materials for various biomedical applications. The book is thoughtfully composed and well written and gives a good overview of the current state of the art in this field. -Prof. Michal Piasecki, Jan Dlugosz, University, Poland
