This textbook explains the fundamental aspects of nanotechnology and fills the gap between bio-inspired nanotechnological systems and functionality of living organisms, introducing new insights to their physicochemical, biophysical and thermodynamic behaviour.Addressed to all those involved in recent advances in pharmaceutics, this book is divided in three major parts: Part A refers to the physicochemical and thermodynamics aspects of nanosystems, wherein their biophysical behaviour is correlated with that of the cells of living organisms; Part B refers to the application of nanotechnology in imaging, diagnostics and therapeutics; Part C is focused on issues regarding safety and nanotoxicity of nanosystems, and the regulatory framework that surrounds these. The text promotes the concept that biophysics, thermodynamics and nanotechnology are considered to be emerging tools that, when approached within regulatory boundaries, provide new and integrated knowledge for the production of new medicines.In 2018, Prof. Demetzos was honored with an award by the Order of Sciences of the Academy of Athens for his scientific contribution in Pharmaceutical Nanotechnology.

“The purpose is to detail scientific principles and applications of nanotechnology in diagnostics and drug delivery. Fundamental principles and applications of nanotechnology in therapeutics are useful to many scientists. Those who are interested in understanding the basics of nanotechnology will find this useful. The target audience is young scientists, but the book is expected to be helpful to graduate students as well. The author is an experienced scientist and academician in the field of nanotechnology.” (Rahmat M. Talukder, Doody's Book Reviews, August, 2016)

Honored for its innovative content by a prestigious award from the Academy of Athens Provides a novel approach to understanding bio-inspired nanotechnological systems for pharmaceutical applications by correlating their physicochemical, biophysical and thermodynamic behaviours with those of a living organism Appendices and detailed descriptions of techniques for practical applications act as an easy reference for the reader Chapters on nanotoxicity, safety and regulation inform the reader on the approval process for nanotechnological systems as pharmaceutics
