Description

Book Synopsis
This book is about how a knowledge and understanding of biological products and processes can lead to new insights in the synthesis, design and processing of inorganic-based materials. This approach is called 'biomimetics'. The book attempts to survey the new frontiers of biomimetic materials chemistry.
