This book is devoted to the state of the art in investigation of the problem of physiological origin and functions of the so-called biogenic magnetic nanoparticles (BMNs), which are strong natural nanoscale permanent magnets inside living organisms. There are three ideas about the functional purpose of BMNs. The first is the magnetotaxis of magnetotactic bacteria, the second is the magnetoreception of multicellular organisms. Later, the third ...
