The main concept promoted in this book is an integrated approach for producing new medicines following the nanotoxicity, biotoxicity, regulatory, and ethical guidelines, which are also covered in the book. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book is divided into three parts. Part A provides an introduction and a historical overview of nanotechnology. Part B delves deeper into issues relating to lipid and polymeric nanostructures in medicine. Part C presents the regulatory landscape around nanotechnology and nanomedicine, while highlighting the need to keep an eye on emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning. Overall, this book opens up biomedical applications for previously challenging drugs and drug targets. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWritten by a highly qualified professor with significant pertinent research experience, \u003ci\u003eNanotechnology in Therapeutics\u003c\/i\u003e includes discussion on: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEukaryotic cell membranes, their structural properties, and the thermodynamic payload of their lipid bilayers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe DLVO (Derjaguin, Landau, Verwey and Overbeek) theory as a scientific tool for studying the stability and the behavior of nanoparticles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLiposomes, lipid nanoparticles, and solid lipid nanoparticles, as well as polymeric nanoparticles, like micelles, polymersomes, and dendrimers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIssues in the approval process of nanomedicines by the regulatory agencies, such as complexity, chaos, and nonlinear dynamics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eWith comprehensive coverage of novel concepts that have the potential to transform how new medicines are designed and developed, \u003ci\u003eNanotechnology in Therapeutics\u003c\/i\u003e is an essential resource on the subject for chemists in industry, as well as biomedical and pharmaceutical engineers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCostas Demetzos\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Pharmaceutical Nanotechnology at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens.
