The editors and authors provide an overview of the state-of-the-art in a burgeoning area that merges the controlled … activity of one of Nature’s main class of polymers–proteins and peptides–with the more traditional chemistry of synthetic polymers. this volume nicely introduces the researcher and student to the area of peptide polymer hybrids and outlines the areas of synthesis and self-assembly as well as potential medical applications. This is a fast developing area of interdisciplinary research, and this volume sets the scene well.
