From the reviews: "This book is commended for its clarity, readability, scope of references, and flow, which will make it a useful resource for individuals new to the field. ... Each chapter begins with an outline, abstract, and set of key words and ends with a 'forward look' that provides suggestions for further studies in the field. In summary, this book complements earlier ones in the field pertaining to functional dyes in general and supramolecular assemblies specifically." (Harold S. Freeman, Journal of the American Chemical Society, Vol. 128 (19), 2006)
