✦ Synopsis

This book covers major classes of crystals in the design of novel materials, with an emphasis on advances and applications.
* The editor is one of the pioneers in the "design" and "engineering" approach in solid state supramolecular chemistry
* All authors developed a specific class of crystals and are world leaders in the field
* Reflects the rapid progress made in this fieldContent:
