Life-Enhancing Plastics: Plastics And Other Materials In Medical Applications, Vol. 2, Series on Biomaterials and Bioengineering

For those who are interested in following up some of the topices touched upon in this book, I have given a short list of recent book titles. I have not read most of them, but from the reviews they appear to be well recommended. I have also found it useful to search the internet for review articles on specific topics by government agencies, university departments or medical schools.
