Summary
While medical applications have been reviewed in recent literature, there is a need for easily accessible information on applications for liposomes beyond pharmacology and medicine. The Handbook of Nonmedical Applications of Liposomes fills this void. It presents recent developments in the use of liposomes in many scientific disciplines.
