From the reviews:
"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." (Stuart J Rowan, Journal of the American Chemical Society, Vol. 129 (4), 2007)
