Gå med i LibraryThing för att få reda på om du skulle tycka om den här boken. Det finns inga diskussioner på LibraryThing om den här boken. A weird mix of interesting info and really stupid jokes. I almost gave up , but then right in the middle of the book he coins the term ' nanozaftig ' to describe curved nanosurfaces, after that it was all okay. I thought maybe English isn't isn't his first language. ( Turns out he's Canadian ) ( )
"presents a balanced picture, citing current research problems and unknowns along with all the promises that nanotechnology holds. The text focuses on three areas: health applications, environmental uses, and the use of information technology products for computing, displaying, and relaying information."
What if a doctor could stop cancer by targeting a single malignant cell before it multiplied? Imagine a paper-thin "power suit" that could keep you warm on a winter day. What about a computer that connects directly with a person's thoughts? In this groundbreaking exploration of the future of nanotechnology, Ted Sargent reveals how all disciplines of science, from medicine to microchips, are converging to create materials using the tiniest scale possible--molecule by molecule. And instead of trying to overcome the natural world, nanotech takes its every move from the perfect, elegant structure of nature itself. Its potential is seemingly endless, with practical implications that will revolutionize the way we live, work, and play. In an age when science often evokes more fear than faith, when the potential for superviruses and diabolical cloning looms in our consciousness, Sargent enthusiastically illuminates nanotech's positive possibilities. By working with the tiniest building blocks in nature, pioneering scientists will drastically improve the quality of life for all of us.--P. [4] of cover. Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |
