Phase transitions--changes between different states of organization in a complex system--have long helped to explain physics concepts, such as why water freezes

This book highlights the recent advances of thermodynamics and biophysics in drug delivery nanosystems and in biomedical nanodevices. The up-to-date book provid

This book challenges the current wisdom of how cells work. It emphasizes the role of cell water and the gel-like nature of the cell, building on these features
