Nanotechnology, No Small Matter
Abstract:
Many scientists and futurists say we are on the verge of a technological and medical revolution that will turn science fiction into reality.
Nanotechnology has long left the laboratory and its discoveries and products are all around us -- from longer lasting tennis balls, waterproof pants and drug delivery patches to quicker and more powerful computers, and faster burning rocket fuels. Last year alone, nano-business garnered $32 billion in sales of household products in the U.S.
