Книга "Engineering, Medicine and Science at the Nano-Scale" - это учебник, который был подготовлен на основе лекций, читаемых для студентов аспирантов и старших курсов в Пеннском университете (США) и Техническом университете Дельфта (Нидерланды). В начале книги авторы обсуждают явления, происходящие на наномасштабе, а в следующих пяти главах более подробно рассматриваются наномасштабная физика, химия, наука о материалах и биология, а также главы о синтезе и изготовлении, а также характеризации на наномасштабе. В следующих четырех главах представлены и обсуждаются различные примеры применения нанотехнологий в широком спектре отраслей. В книге также рассматриваются вопросы безопасности, влияния на окружающую среду, развития рабочей силы, экономического благосостояния и социальных изменений, связанных с нанотехнологиями. Эти вопросы также являются основой последних двух глав. Книга представляет интерес для студентов и исследователей, работающих в области науки и технологии на наномасштабе.
The book is thoroughly written in English, being designed for students at both the graduate and undergraduate levels from various universities in the world. Having previously lectured on the topic, it felt natural for the author to embrace the simplicity of an accessible learning resource. The contents of the book have arisen through lectures given at Penn StateUniversity, USA and the University of Technology, Delft, Netherlands. Beginning with general discussions about the features and nuances associated with the nanoscale, the text then proceeds into chapters devoted to nanoscale physical and chemical matters, as well as discussions on materials and biological processes. A brief section is introduced which discuss the synthesis and fabrication processes used in producing nanoscale materials, and finally, there are chapters dedicated to the applications of various nanoscale constructs. Throughout the latter part of the books, discussion surrounds concerns for safety and environmental efficacy, issues that contribute to workforce development and economic benefits, and how these issues relate to societal changes that nanotechnology may bring about.

Описание книги от Marcel Van de Voorde
Students at universities the world over will benefit from the authors' concise treatment, arising out of lectures given for a graduate and advanced undergraduate course at Penn State University (USA) and University of Technology Delft (NL). The textbook begins by addressing, in general terms, the phenomena and peculiarities that occur at the nanoscale. In the following five chapters, readers are introduced in detail to nanoscale physics, chemistry, materials science, and biology, followed by chapters on synthesis and fabrication as well as characterization at the nanoscale. In the next four chapters a variety of exemplary applications taken from a wide range of sectors are also presented and discussed. Concerns for safety, environmental impact, workforce development, economic wellbeing, and societal change issues arising from nanotechnology are woven throughout the book and additionally form the focus of the last two chapters.
