Basics of Nanotechnology, 3rd Edition

"[..] preparing an account of basic nanotechnology which is appealing and accessible to readers from all these disciplines is a critical task for an author; Dr. Rubahn did rather well in this respect. [..] The book meets the goal of providing an accessible introduction to a very diverse group of readers [..]; its strengths lie in the presentation of various aspects of nanotechnology and the inclusion of some basic concepts. As there are not many books introducing nanotechnology at this level, this type of contribution to the literature is welcome. It is a recommended reading for scientists and engineers who would like to be introduced broadly to nanoscience and nanotechnology. [..] Overall, I highly recommend this textbook for the reader's library reference shelf." (Jn. of Nanotechnology, Vol. 3, March 2009)
