Synopsis

The chapters in this volume describe bottom-up strategies and chronicle cutting-edge advances from several of the world’s leading laboratories engaged in the development of molecular machines.
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2016 was awarded jointly to Jean-Pierre Sauvage, Sir J. Fraser Stoddart and Bernard L. Feringa "for the design and synthesis of molecular machines". 
Both Jean-Pierre Sauvage and Sir J. Fraser Stoddart have also contributed to this book.

About this title

Review

"In my opinion, this book provides deep insight into this fascinating, challenging, and increasingly important field.
Are you interested in molecular machines and looking for a comprehensive book to learn the important physical paradigms and synthetic strategies? Do you teach molecular machines in a chemistry or engineering course at a college and would like to include the usual and some unusual experimental techniques in your course? Are you an expert in molecular machines and would like to keep up with recent developments? Would you like to know why the work on molecular machines is challenging the classic definition of chemical engineering? The answer to all four questions is the same: Here is the book for you!
