From the Back Cover

Polymers play a key role in the medical, pharmaceutical, chemical, and agricultural industries. Over the past two decades there has been a dramatic increase in our understanding of polymers. With many more uses and applications of polymers expected in the near future now is a good time to review and summarize the state of the art of modern polymer theories.

In this book, Professor Alexander Grosberg, one of the pioneers and leaders in the field of theoretical polymer science, has selected the most important topics within polymer science and matched them with experts who can clearly present the state of the art of each.
