Nanofuture by J Storrs Hall Phd
Nanotechnology is the science of designing and building machines at the molecular and atomic levels.Dr. Hall - a leading researcher on the frontiers of nanotechnology who has designed for NASA - describes nanotechnology in a very accessible way, so that anyone can understand what it's about, what it could do, and what it can't do. He puts it into historical context, explaining how previous technological developments have affected us, how nanotechnology fits into the historical trends for technologies ranging from motors to medicine, and how the continuation of these trends, with nanotechnology as a strong determining factor, will have a profound impact on the future. Together with its sister science of biotechnology, nanotechnology has the potential to alter the very human race, change who we are. Can this possibly be good? Should it be encouraged or opposed? No one knows for sure, but the basis for informed thought can be found in these exciting, stimulating pages, which will open the doors of the future to you.Dr. J.Storrs Hall, J.Storrs Hall, J.Storrs Hall, J.St Nanorex, Inc.'s Chief Scientist is (Laporte, PA). and a Molecular Engineering Research Institute Fellow. From 1985 through 1997, he worked as a Computer Systems Architect at Rutgers University's Laboratory for Computer Science Research. He is the author of The Macmillan Encyclopedia of Energy's Nanotechnologies section, as well as several scholarly articles and has been cited in numerous books.
