Molecular Recognition and Polymers covers the fundamental aspects and applications of molecular recognition in the creation of novel polymeric materials for use in drug design and delivery, sensors, tissue engineering, and other areas. It provides examples of how supramolecular strategies can be used in the creation and self-assembly of polymers and covers state-of-the-art techniques for the design and characterization of non-covalent interactions in polymers in order to tailor the material's properties to various applications. This is a great reference for graduate students and researchers in related fields.
