Reviews “Among various recent books on dendrimers, this one focuses on the very promising, but still challenging, field of nanomedicine/personalized medicine. It is not exhaustive, as the field is already very broad, but, besides classical topics such as drug and gene delivery and diagnosis, it deals also with topics rarely discussed previously, such as molecular modeling, toxicity studies, and it addresses also emerging areas. An inspiring book for the dendrimers community, in chemistry, biology, and nanomedicine!” Anne-Marie Caminade, CNRS, Laboratoire de Chimie de Coordination, Toulouse, France; and University of Toulouse, France Now Available in Paperback This valuable new book offers a new perspective on dendrimers that bridges the gap between basic research and applied nanomedicine. It explores the ultimate effectiveness of dendrimers in theranostics, a promising field that combines therapeutics and diagnostics into single multifunctional formulations used to affect therapy or treatment of a disease state. The authors examine the potential uses of dendrimers, which have proven their capabilities in local/systemic drug delivery, physical stabilization of the drug, solubility enhancement of the poorly soluble drugs, and gene delivery. The research of leaders in the field of dendrimer research from around the globe has been compiled, with explanations and intepretations, to provide a comprehensive volume on the subject. The potential role of dendrimers in combating communicable as well as noncommunicable diseases is highlighted along with other pertinent examples of recent breakthroughs in dendrimer-based nanomedicine. At the same time, certain bottlenecks are also considered that may inhibit direct clinical adaptations of dendrimers at present, mainly because of their high cost of production, unpredictable behavior in living organisms, unknown bioavailability, biocompatibility or pharmacokinetics, issues with therapeutic dose selection, or toxicity. In the last three decades, dendrimer research has gone from infancy into adolescence, and its entry into mature adulthood awaits toiling research input in the coming decades. This book provides an entryway to new research. Key Features:

AAP support has been truly important throughout the initial and final stages of the book. While the majority of the publishing work is done at the early stages, the final touches that include the last-minute corrections of the authors are extremely crucial to the quality the book tries to convey. The assistance of AAP during the last stages of corrections and communication with the authors was a very positive contributor to my state of mind during those stressful moments. I recommend the publishing experience with AAP to other editors of scientific material.” —Stavros Hatzopoulos, PhD, Hearing Science Laboratory, University Hospital of Ferrara, Ferrara, Italy AAP book title: Nanotechnologies: The Physics of Nanomaterials (2-volume set) “I was very pleased with the interaction and support of the team at Apple Academic Press. They provided me with regular and useful information and updates throughout the publishing procedure. I am also very happy with the final product, which is of good quality. The books are now available and are professionally distributed through the various channels. I would like again to thank the team at AAP for all their hard work and support.” —David Schmool, PhD, Director, Groupe d’Etude de la Matière Condensée GEMaC, National Centre for Scientific Research, Université de Versailles/Saint-Quentin, Université Paris-Saclay,Versailles, France AAP book title: Physiology of Molluscs (2-volume set) “I have enjoyed the full benefit of support, encouragement, and kindness from the members of AAP I have had the pleasure of being associated with. In the same vein, I hope AAP was satisfied with the book series I have edited in advancing the knowledge. It has been a great journey and was a great pleasure and satisfaction. Advancing scholarship through publications is one of the best routes publishers can take, and I would hold AAP as one of the best ones.” —Saber Saleuddin, PhD, University Professor Emeritus, Department of Biology, York University in Toronto, Ontario, Canada AAP book title: Green Chemistry and Sustainable Technology: Biological, Pharmaceutical, and Macromolecular Systems “It had been my pleasure to work with the production team of Apple Academic Press for almost a decade.
