Book Synopsis :

Nanotechnology is the science of designing and building machines at the molecular and atomic levels.?Dr. Hall ? a leading researcher on the frontiers of nanotechnology who has designed for NASA ? describes nanotechnology in a very accessible way, so that anyone can understand what it?s about, what it could do, and what it can?t do. He puts it into historical context, explaining how previous technological developments have affected us, how nanotechnology fits into the historical trends for technologies ranging from motors to medicine, and how the continuation of these trends, with nanotechnology as a strong determining factor, will have a profound impact on the future.Together with its sister science of biotechnology, nanotechnology has the potential to alter the very human race, change who we are. Can this possibly be good? Should it be encouraged or opposed? No one knows for sure, but the basis for informed thought can be found in these exciting, stimulating pages, which will open

Biofabrication By : Ritu Raman READ BOOK NOW     Book Synopsis : How engineered materials and machines powered by living biological cells can tackle technological challenges in medicine, agriculture, and global security.You are a biological machine whose movement is powered by skeletal muscle, just as a car is a machine whose movement is powered by an engine. If you can be built from the bottom up with biological materials, other machines can be as well. This is the conceptual starting point for biofabrication, the act of building with living cells?building with biology in the same way we build with synthetic materials. In this volume in the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series, Ritu Raman offers an accessible introduction to biofabrication, arguing that it can address some of our greatest technological challenges.After presenting the background information needed to understand the emergence and evolution of biofabrication and describing the fundamental technology that enables building...
