Foreword
Bioglasses are an intriguing and challenging class of biomaterials, which present important technological application, involving health and life. The results of the elaboration of this book, which involve historic concepts, evolution and knowledge consolidation, and directions for the future of the developed glass materials and its application as a biomaterial, are a precious contribution not only for researchers, but for students that intent to start or are developing their studies as well as for professionals from correlated areas. The contribution of authors from different places of the world, allowed the covering of current issues presented in 13 consistent ch
