Tailored functional oxide nanomaterials: from design to multi-purpose applications

will discuss in that chapter, therefore they can build an initial perception before reading the entire chapter. Interestingly, in each chaptermotivational quotes are presented. Although they don’t have relationwith thematerial, it can be a bit of an interesting intermezzo for the reader. There are eight chapters in this book which are very intertwined with each other and easy to follow. The first section is about anatomical and morphological preliminaries. It describes anatomical and morphological structure of the bladder. It also provides functional relationships between human urinary bladder with the regulatory growth and remodelling centres in the brain. The second section is about continual models of bladder tissue. It explains the general framework of the bladderwall soft tissue mechanics. The third section is about the models of the urinary bladder, which focusses on describing the bladder as a shell structure and the bladder as a soft bio shell. The next section is about signallingmechanisms. It describes the process of neurohormonal signalling in bladder tissue growth and remodelling. The fifth section is more about modelling the (intra)hypothalamic–pituitary axis. It provides existing mathematical models of electrical impulse transduction and modern trends and their pitfalls in the various modelling approaches. The next section is about growth and remodelling, including the kinematic, constrained mixture, homogenised constrained mixture models, and also advantages and disadvantages of each approach. The later section is the core part of the book, about brain–bladder axis in tissue growth and remodelling. You will find it very interesting to read this section. The authors end the chapters in this book with the question, ‘What is to follow?’ in Chapter 8. It discusses more how tomake a model reliable, model expansions in biomedicine and implementations in engineering. What we like is that the author immediately gives explanations for the biology abbreviations used. This makes it very easy for readers to quickly understand thematerial presented. Although no abbreviation is given in all chapters, the author has presented the acronyms page at the beginning of the book. The page contains a set of acronyms that are used throughout the book.Moreover, the authors use simple terms in mathematics and biology that are familiar to readers, for example algebraic, ordinary and partial differential equations and biological terminology. However, it is hoped that readers whowish to explore this book are already familiar with the basic principles of cell and molecular biology, biochemistry, differential equations and solid bodymechanics so that this book feels more comfortable to follow. What pleased us the most is, there is an appendix at the end of the book thatmakes it easier for readers to understand, evaluate, and replicate results or theories in research. The authors have been very detailed in explaining every material in the book. They always present the latest findings and relevant facts in each chapter. In addition, the mathematical equations used in this book make sense and are easy to understand, especially for unexpert readers. The important point that makes this book very interesting is, the author has succeeded in explaining biological systems with mathematical models, and even managed to describe the schematic models superbly. However, most of the presumptionsmade in themodel are based on the conclusion process and guestimates with only a few confirmable facts. As such, the models themselves need to be continually refined and improved to make them more accurate and reliable in line with recent technological advances and ever-changing ways of perceiving life.
