Summary: Intro to Nano
Review: What a nice, easy introduction for the lay reader to an important new field of science that will be a part of our lives for years to come! I am a professional, non-scientist, and I found this intro to nanotech to be an easy-read that provided a perfect survey of the breadth and potential impact of this field. I have listened to a couple of lectures on nano-applications in medical science, but in comparison, this book was a more lucid and entertaining preview of this field.
