Product Description
This invaluable book provides a pointed introduction to the fascinating subject of bottom-up nanotechnology with emphasis on the molecular-based study of condensed matter in small systems. Nanotechnology has its roots in the landmark lecture delivered by the famous Noble Laureate physicist, Richard Feynman, on 29 December 1959 entitled “There’s Plenty of Room at the Bottom.” By the mid-1980s, it had gained real momentum with the invention of scanning probe microscop… More >>

Reviewer: Juan Carlos Martin Escobar-Remolina
This is a very useful book, particularly for researchers and graduate students. It explains principles of nanotechnology, Monte Carlo and molecular simulation. Some are familiar but many are not described in detail elsewhere. The review of the literature is very comprehensive and up-to-date. The book is unified in presentation. The explanation is excelent from the computer science point of view.
