This is one of the most ambitious projects in the publishing area...warmly recommended.... - Stig E. Friberg, Editor, Journal of Dispersion Science and Technology

From the Inside Flap

Novel delivery systems designed to facilitate the use of “fountain of youth” and other functional actives is an idea whose time has come. In a rapidly growing global market eager for products that really work, accelerating market pull forces and technology push have set the stage for this foundation text.

It is not only intended for scientists and technologists but will also be of high interest to market development and business personnel. This book will cause a breakthrough in effective interaction among technology and marketing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Addition to Cosmetic Science, December 29, 2006
This review is from: Delivery System Handbook for Personal Care and Cosmetic Products: Technology, Applications and Formulations (Personal Care and Cosmetic Technology) (Hardcover)
This book undertakes a major technology area of the cosmetic business, previously thought to be too large for one book. The book is well thought out, well laid out and an outstanding addition for anyone in the industry. If you are interested in looking up one specific topic, or in an in depth review of a subject, the book is great.
