Overnight Transformations

Abstract:
Mike Treder: CRN contends that a nearly overnight transformation in manufacturing capability, due to the invention of personal nanofactories, is a strong possibility in the next 10-15 years. The challenges brought on by this technological revolution -- ethical, economic, social, environmental, military, and many other issues -- are likely to exacerbate many of today's conflicts between nations and peoples.
