Nanotech Pioneers provides an insightful look into the nanotechnology revolution, where it is going, and how it will impact us. And it introduces us to the fascinating cast of characters that are bringing it into existence.
The nanotechnology revolution has similarities to the wild forecasts that accompanied the Inteet craze, until the bubble burst, but it is very different. Nanotech effects the material stuff the world is made of, including things that make a lot of money, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, polymers, precious metals, clothing, cars, fuels, steel, diamonds, DNA, cells, bones, blood, brains, computers, semiconductors, biosensors, computer screens, watches, lasers, space travel, pet food, kitty letter, and much, much more. And in each of these situations, nanotechnology has the potential to make money.
