This is a collection of essays edited by Wu, Chang, and Xiao with backgrounds in ceramics, chemistry, dentistry, and medical engineering. The contributors are a diverse group with credentials ranging from dentistry to ceramics and translational research on bone growth and regeneration. The various essays cover the use of a variety of materials and techniques to affect drug delivery and bone regeneration. Among them are mesoporous bioactive glasses, silicate-based bioactive ceramics, and mesoporous silica nanoparticles with a hollow core for drug delivery. There are two essays on bioceramics, one on preparation and biomineralization and one on controlling morphology and crystal growth in newer bioceramics. There is also an essay on 3D visualization of bioceramic scaffolds in vivo. The essays have a practical focus and all have a section on preparation of the materials discussed or are entirely about preparation. Within these sections there is a basic framework for preparation with specific details in the cited references. There are many b&w graphs and electron micrographs and a color plate section in the middle of the book. Annotation ©2013 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
