To read a good book on nano science and technology, readers should have a reasonable grasp of quantum mechanics, which is exhaustively discussed in the first chapter. To be concerned with the technique of preparation of nano particles, two chapters are devoted on how to make different types of nano materials that are useful for various applications with their mechanical properties. The rest deals with the most important properties like magnetic, electronic and optical phenomena of nano materials citing the most useful and well-studied materials of importance today.The author illustrates the novel techniques such as sol-gel method, Mossbauer spectroscopy for supermagnetic behaviour of nano-sized magnetite and many other methods, in order to have an edge on the interpretation of the experimental data to be able to elucidate the observed interesting property. All these subjects are given due importance as it is attracting a lot of attention of the scientists and technologists on the one hand, and on the other hand, both undergraduate and postgraduate students of various universities and institutes.

About the Author:

Dr A K Bandyopadhyay obtained his Ph.D. from Sheffield University, UK. He has long research experience both in the UK and France on Nanotechnology. He taught mathematics to undergraduates and postgraduates on special functions and integral transforms in the application fronts. His present research interest is on non-linear dynamic system analysis and spatio-temporal solutions in nano-ferroelectrics for photonics applications.
