Fresh ideas have always been a necessary ingredient for progress in
chemistry. Without a continuous supply of stimulating ideas from
creative researchers, there would be no new insights into the
subject. But what are some of the ideas that pervade modern
chemistry? The answer to this question is to be found in
"Stimulating Concepts in Chemistry". In a collection of 24 essays,
a group of leading researchers provides an overview of the most
recent developments in their fields.

Readers can find out about modern concepts in chemistry such as
self-assembly, nanochemistry, and molecular machines. Moreover,
many spectacular advances have been achieved from the fusion of
chemistry with life and materials science - a development which is
illustrated by contributions on enzyme mimics, molecular wires, and
chemical sensors. Further, the essayists write about new
nanomaterials, efficient methods in synthesis, and big biomolecules
- indeed, many of the topics that have dominated some of the recent
discussions in chemistry.

This outstanding text makes use of a special layout to reflect the
editors' aim of presenting concepts in the form of essays. Thus,
the book is not merely another source of knowledge but is intended
to stimulate readers to develop their own ideas and concepts.

This format should help to make the book interesting to a wide
range of scientists. Students of chemistry will benefit from the
different style of presentation of their subject, while researchers
in industry and academia will welcome the exciting way in which
some of the most challenging concepts in modern chemistry are
presented.
