"This volume presents the most up-to-date research on the chemical
aspects (both experimental and theoretical) of nanometer-sized
forms of carbon, paying special attention to fullerenes, nanotubes,
and nanohorns. Contributors discuss topics such as noncovalent
interactions, supramolecular assembly, dendrimers, nanocomposites,
chirality, nanodevices, host-guest interactions, endohedral
fullerenes, magnetic resonance imaging, nanodiamond particles, and
graphene." (Booknews, 1 April 2011)
"All three editors are prolific authors in their own right, and their high standing among scientists in the nanocarbon community has enabled them to recruit an exceptionally distinguished team of authors for the chapters. The book is quite reasonably priced and belongs in the personal libraries of all scientists who are actively engaged in research on the chemistry of nanocarbons. Every university chemistry library should also have a copy." (JACS, February 2011)"The book does provide a useful reference resource for the topics covered and is a likely addition to the international bookshelf." (Chemistry World, December 2010)
