In this book, a team of outstanding scientists in the field of modern magnetic nanotechnologies illustrates the state-of-the-art in several areas of advanced magneto-electronic devices, magnetic micro-electromechanical systems and high density information storage technologies. Providing a unique source of information for the young physicist, chemist or engineer, the book also serves as a crucial reference for the expert scientist and the teacher of advanced university courses.

From the reviews:

"This book contains the proceedings of a NATO Advanced Study Institute on 'Magnetic Nanostructures for Micro-Electromechanical Systems and Spintronic Applications' held in 2006. The goal of the editors is to provide the reader with a 'state of the art' overview of the field of magnetic nanotechnology. The book contains 12 major chapters written by 24 authors from eight different countries. ... the most likely reader of this book will be an engineer in a university or in industry."
