Nanotechnology has grown within a single lifetime into one of the central platforms of modern biomedicine, reshaping how disease is detected, treated, and prevented. This book offers a coherent, single-volume account organised around three pillars: diagnostics, drug delivery, and disease control, arguing that they are not separate technologies but three faces of one capability: the engineering of matter at the scale of biology. Beginning with physical foundations, it moves through molecular diagnostics, targeted drug delivery, phytochemical nanomedicine, and cancer nanotechnology, then infection management, vaccinology, antimicrobial materials, and regenerative medicine, before confronting safety, toxicity, and clinical translation. Two commitments run throughout: that the safety and environmental consequences of nanomaterials are integral to responsible practice, and that green, sustainable, affordable synthesis must serve the settings of greatest need, concluding within the One Health framework.
