Polymer News
"...in this book the editors have done a great job in making different chapters coherent and complementing, even down to the style of writing and the emphasis of areas of coverage. The production of the book is to the highest quality, including the unusual use of colour photographs, when necessary, to good effect."
Materials World
"...provides a refreshing antidote to the hyperbole which is tended to surround this subject... beautifully produced."
Chemistry World
"... it is highly recommended for all libraries that serve researchers working in nanoscience."
E-STREAMS
"... this is a worthwhile contribution to the mainstream nanoscience literature."
Advanced Materials
"Therefore, the book is especially interesting for chemists who want to gain insight into the entire spectrum of nanoscience."

"Die Bücher sind ein guter Einstieg um sich mit dem Thema der Nanomaterialien vertraut zu machen? Ich denke, dieses Buch ist vor allem für Personen, die sich für Nanomaterialien interessieren und sich auch über einen längeren Zeitraum damit beschäftigen wollen, geeignet."
Hexenkessel, Uni Stuttgart
"Vor allem das breite Themenspektrum macht dieses Werk so interessant. ...Das Buch ist für den synthetisch arbeitenden Chemiker ein guter Einstieg in das Thema "Nanomaterialien" und bietet ihm die Möglichkeit, über den Tellerrand hinaus zu schauen; Fachleute können sich mit dem Buch, vor allem wegen des ausführlichen Registers und der zahlreichen Literaturzitate, schnell einen Überblick verschaffen. ... Insgesamt kann man dieses Buch ... uneingeschränkt empfehlen."
Nachrichten aus der Chemie
"Alles in allem ist das Buch zur Begleitung von Vorlesungen in den Studiengängen Chemie und Materialwissenschaften bestens geeignet."
Angewandte Chemie
"Die drei international ausgewiesenen Herausgeber, der Inder Rao, der Deutsche Müller und der in den USA lebende Brite Cheetham verkörpern nicht nur selbst internationale Spitzenforschung, sie haben sich der internationalen Elite auf dem Gebiet der Chemie der Nanomaterialien als Autoren der 21 Kapitel versichert.
... Ich kann das Buch uneingeschränkt allen Materialwissenschaftlern empfehlen, die sich mit der Synthese und Anwendung chemisch erzeugter Nanomaterialien beschäftigen."
