Description This volume presents a variety of articles that encompass the broad scope of supramolecular chemistry. Reusch's chapter covers biological
channel compounds, while the work of Hall and Kirkovits looks into their synthetic counterparts. Metal ion sensors, calixarenes and "crystal
engineering" are described by pioneers in these fields. This work, whilst current and authoritative, shows us that much remains
to be undertaken and understood. It is hoped that this volume will be of interest to those who wish to fill these gaps; scientists already
in the field and those who may see extensions of their own work that will bring them into it.
Contents Supramolecular assemblies in natural and artificial ion channels (G.J. Kirkovits, C.D. Hall). Ion recognition and transport by Poly-(R)-3-hyroxybutanoates
