About the book

Edited by a renowned and much cited chemist, this book covers the whole span of molecular computers that are based on non-biological systems. The contributions by all the major scientists in the field provide an excellent overview of the latest developments in this rapidly expanding area.
A must-have for all researchers working on this very hot topic.
Perfectly complements Biomolecular Information Processing, also by Prof. Katz, and available as a two-volume set.
