EXPLORING TUNNEL TRANSPORT THROUGH PROTEIN AT THE MOLECULAR LEVEL Jason J. Davis, Nan Wang, Wang Xi, and Jianwei Zhao 330 $aThis book outlines a selection of exciting advances currently being made worldwide in the field of modern engineering at the nanometer scale. Leading scientists and engineers give a general overview of research advances in their specialized subject areas. They also describe some of their own cutting-edge research and give their visions of the future. Written in a popular and well-illustrated style, the articles are written by young scientists many of whom hold, or have held, prestigious Royal Society or EPSRC Fellowships.
