Introduction to Nanoscience and Nanotechnology by Chris Binns

Introduction to Nanoscience and Nanotechnology explains nanotechnology to an audience that does not necessarily have a scientific background. It covers all aspects, including the new areas of biomedical applications and the use of nanotechnology to probe the quantum vacuum.
This work is especially valuable for undergraduates as well as beginning graduate studentsMoreover, even general readers with some science background should be able to follow the text. Highly recommended. (Choice , 1 April 2011) It would be incomprehensible to a layman, but provides an interesting overview at graduate level of some aspects of the subject. (Chemistry & Industry, 10 January 2011)
CHRIS BINNS, PhD, is Professor of Nanoscience in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Leicester, United Kingdom. He spent two years working at Synchrotron Radiation Sources (SSRL, Stanford and NSLS, Brookhaven) in the USA. Professor Binns then obtained a permanent academic post at the University of Leicester and continued synchrotron radiation experiments. In the last decade his research has focused on magnetic nanoparticles, and at present is moving into the new areas of biomedical applications of nanoparticles and in Casimir force measurements using scanning probe microscopes.
