Reader reviews for Fullerenes: Principles and Applications

From the publisher

Fullerenes: Principles and Applications discusses all aspects of this exciting field. Sections include: the basic principles for the chemical reactivity of fullerenes, electrochemistry, light induced processes, fullerenes for material sciences, fullerenes and solar cells, biological applications and multifunctional carbon nanotube materials. Written by leading experts in the field the book summarises the basic principles of fullerene chemistry but also highlights some of the most remarkable advances that have occurred in recent years. This book will appeal to researchers in both academia and industry.

First line

The timescale of scientific and technological advance is becoming shorter and shorter in modern society, partly as a consequence of the rapid advance of technology and improving information transfer.
