Tu Youyou's Journey in the Search for Artemisinin is an
autobiographical science book chronicling in detail the great
experiences of Tu Youyou from her childhood to winning the Nobel
Prize in Physiology or Medicine.As Tu Youyou is the first female
scientist from China to win the Nobel Prize in Physiology or
Medicine, this win created a sudden wave of interest in medicine,
resulting in numerous autobiographical books about Tu Youyou
appearing on the market. Contrary to these mass market titles, this
book is uniquely different as it is fully authorized by the Nobel
laureate herself. Her once-confidential experimental data and
Artemisinin research reports are now revealed in this book for all
to learn and comprehend. In addition, one of the book authors, Dr
Wang Manyuan, is the only PhD student supervised by Professor
Tu.Pharmaceutical researchers can use the book's valuable contents
to reference, quote and analyse while searching for their own
scientific inspirations. It also successfully serves as a guide for
budding scientists and future Nobel Prize winners as it provides
the proper guidance and methods of scientific research.

Nanotechnologies, 'the engine of the next Industrial Revolution',
represent the new wave of research for chemical and industrial
innovation. However, with any new technology or compound, comes the
threat of harm to humans and natural ecosystems. Research into the
environmental effects, as well as the ethical, legal, and social
implications of nanotechnologies and nanoproducts has never been
more important. ""Nanotechnologies for Water Environment
Applications"" provides the current status of synthesis and
characterization of nanomaterials, as well as the environmental
effects of nanotechnology. This publication specifically targets
the major applications of nanotechnologies in various water
environments; issues related to the fate and transport of
nanomaterials in aquatic environments; engineered nanomaterials as
emerging contaminants in water; the environmental risks, and
related management, of nanomaterials. Extensive up-to-date
references are provided. This book will be useful to undergraduate
and graduate students of engineering, educators, scientists,
engineers, government officers, decision makers, process managers,
and practicing professionals.
