This resource offers a comprehensive, modern overview of the field of supramolecular chemistry and its evolution into the nanoscale; the first integrated textbook written specifically for students. The second edition now contains five new chapters: ion pair receptors, molecular guests in solution, network solids, gels, and nanochemistry. It includes examples, worked problems, and references. All techniques are introduced from the supramolecular chemist's perspective. In addition, a Wiley supplementary website is available with Powerpoint slides for instructors, along with an author-maintained website of relevant URLs and additional information.
