Synopsis
This book has been written with the clear purpose of presenting forth a forum wherein the discussion goes behind the hype generated by nanotechnology, and explores the darker side of this science. The above mentioned factors make it highly crucial that nanotechnology prepare itself to not just revolutionise technology, but also brace itself against the challenges presented by them, to seek opportunities to work upon them, and keep them at bay. Through incisive, critical studies, the book examines in an in-depth manner the problems faced by nanotechnology, and how it may equip themselves against them. The emphasis on what reports and studies which have predicted such grim outcomes of a full-scale advent of this science, and what they foretell for the future. The tone of the book is highly inquisitive and searching, and it is hoped that this serves well for the readers interested in knowing more about nanotechnology. About The Author:- B.K. Parthasarathy , a well-known teacher and researcher of physics, received his Ph.D quantum physics from England in 1982. He has a strong research background in nanoscience and technology. His areas of special interest include quantum electronic devices, semiconductor devices and materials, molecular-beam epitaxy and semiconductor processing. His research findings have appeared in several journal articles and in the proceedings of international conferences. Dr. Parthasarathy is a honorary member in the advisory bodies of many professional science magazines, and is an active communicator in the media, and at public, education, industry and science forums. He has recognized the importance of initiating nanotechnology and the need to steer their global impact on social, economic, and ethical issues. He has organised a number of seminars of nanotechnology, linking science, governments, industry, investors, international collaborators and civic groups, across the country.
