Supriyo Datta is the Thomas Duncan Distinguished Professor in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Purdue University. He is also the Director of the NASA Institute for Nanoelectronics and Computing. He is a Fellow of the IEEE, the American Physical Society (APS) and the Institute of Physics (IOP) and has authored three other books.

• Foreword; 1. Prologue - electrical resistance: an atomistic view; 2. Schrödinger equation; 3. Self-consistent field; 4. Basis functions; 5. Bandstructure; 6. Subbands; 7. Capacitance; 8. Level broadening; 9. Coherent transport; 10. Non-coherent transport; 11. Atom to transistor; Epilogue; Appendix/advanced formalism; Selected bibliography; MATLAB codes for text figures.

'Molecular transport phenomena in junctions is a very 'hot' area, that is best understood in terms of quantum transport phenomena in general. This book, by one of the true leaders in this field, presents and clarifies molecular transport in the context of the larger quantum transport area. The text is lucid, masterful, understandable and unified. The numerical examples and MATLAB codes combine with the discussions to provide a strongly integrated and very readable overview of the field.' Mark Ratner, Northwestern University, Illinois
