Bioceramics has evolved into a major field of study having important implications for humankind's future health and wellbeing. The Bioceramics-14 monograph contains more than 160 papers with representations from over 20 countries. The topics range from totally inert, load-bearing materials, such as alumina, zirconia, silicon nitride and diamond to bioreactive materials such as calcium phosphates and bioglasses. The latter have great potential for aiding grafting, bone repair,...

The topics range from totally inert, load-bearing materials, such as alumina, zirconia, silicon nitride and diamond to bioreactive materials such as calcium phosphates and bioglasses. The latter have great potential for aiding grafting, bone repair, drug-delivery, and implant-fixation to living tissues.
