This title is a comprehensive text that addresses key aspects of
nanomedicine such as properties occurring at the nanoscale that have
unique medical effects, great molecular knowledge of the human body and
disease processes, and apparent clinical translation as opposed to
narrow insufficient texts that address only a few topics and attempt to
"rebrand" established drug delivery. It will clearly define the field
which is needed due to the immaturity and broad nature of the field. The
book is aligned with both the USA and European roadmaps for nanomedicine
and will address initiatives taken in Asia that ensures timely and
relevant content. In-depth chapters ensure each section is adequately
covered. The nanopharmaceutical section focuses on novel drug delivery
systems relevant to nanomedicine and the book has an extensive section
on immune recognition at the nanoscale which has implications for in
vivo applications of nanomedicines.
