From the reviews: "The editors succeed in their aim of presenting an overview of research on polyfluorenes and related heteroanalogues. ... The book is well edited ... and the index is useful. The chapters are particularly strong in summarizing the various synthetic routes to polyfluorenes and their monomers. Research scientists and graduate students interested in the chemistry and properties of ployfluorenes should look at this book." (William C. Trogler, Journal of the American Chemical Society, Vol. 131 (8), 2009)
