This is a book that combines presentation of state-of-the-art scientific techniques employing a highly pedagogical approach that makes it suitable for use in advanced classes in Chemistry and Materials Science. The first chapter includes a brief, but essential, introduction to all aspects of nanomaterials, with emphasis on size-dependent properties, which also makes it suitable as an introductory text for nanoscience. The following chapters focus on the hot topic of two-dimensional nanomaterials; most aspects of synthesis, characterization, physical and chemical properties are discussed. This is an excellent source of information for the hottest research topic of our decade. -Ioannis Remediakis, University of Crete, Greece

First of all, key concepts in nanoscience are introduced from the very beginning, and then the main features that characterize the 2D nanomaterials are presented and thoroughly developed. ... The way that the book contents are organized makes it really appealing to anyone working in the field of nanoscience and nanotechnology. -Eva Pellicer, Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona, Spain Given the increase in research and technological applications of nanolayered 2-D materials recently, this book is being published at the right time. Although the focus is on graphene, the coverage is broader and covers other 2-D nanosystems as well. ... The presentation of concepts of synthesis and properties of nanostructures is at a simple level, easy to understand and appropriate for graduate students. -Amit Misra, Los Alamos National Laboratory, New Mexico, USA ... a highly arranged and well-organized approach to study the low-dimensional structures ... This book can be recommended to both students and researchers working in the field of nanotechnologies. The relatively large number of figures and suitable physical explanation of low-dimensional effects make understanding the subject easier. -Alex Axelevitch, Holon Institute of Technology, Israel
