This book provides a broad introductory survey of the remarkable field of optical nanomanipulation. It establishes and clearly differentiates the physical principles and provides a snapshot of many prominent current applications. The first chapters introduce and develop core theory focusing on the physical significance and the most salient parameters. The remaining chapters are full of copious examples and illustrations that explain and exhibit the features and uses of mechanisms involved. Optical Nanomanipulation is an amenable introduction for the non-specialist to the more advanced methods.
