About The Book:

Nanomagnetism is a rapidly expanding area of research, and this book is the first comprehensive attempt to cover the field of molecular nanomagnetism in detail. Magnetic molecules, at the scale of nanomagnets, provide a unique opportunity to explore both classical and quantum properties. The book highlights the discovery in the 90s of a manganese-ion cluster that demonstrated hysteresis of molecular origin and provided evidence of quantum effects, launching a whole new research area.

The book bridges the gap between chemistry and physics, making it an essential resource for both chemists and physicists. It is co-authored by the chemists who were originators in the field and a theorist who played a key role in its development. The text is written in a way that caters to both communities and uses language that is accessible to all levels of readers within the fields.

This book stands out as a unique resource, as it is the only comprehensive book available in the area of molecular nanomagnetism, filling a crucial gap in both research and academic learning. It is highly recommended for both newcomers and experts in the field, providing a strong foundation in this novel and rapidly developing area of science.
