CRC Handbook of Bioactive Ceramics Volume I: Bioactive Glasses and Glass-Ceramics

This two-volume work provides the first definitive scientific treatment of the rapidly growing field of bioactive implant materials. Contributions to each volume include introductory review chapters combined with recent experimental findings presented at the World Biomaterials Congress in Kyoto, Japan in April, 1988. T The redent work has been selected by careful review to represent the strongest scientific contributions to the field. The nearly 100 chapters include contributions from 11 countries and are representative of the explosive growth of science and clinical applications of this new field.
