Nanotechnology the Science of Small Things

Abstract:
Nanotechnology, according to its fans, will jumpstart a new industrial revolution with molecular-sized structures as complex as the human cell and 100 times stronger than steel. The new technology transforms everyday products and the way they are made by manipulating atoms so that materials can be shrunk, strengthened and lightened all at once. To date only modest nanotech-based products - such as stain-resistant fabrics and fresh food packaging - have entered the market, but some scientists predict nanotechnology will eventually be the only game in town.
