"Nanotechnology may well rival the development of the transistor or telecommunications in its ultimate impact."
-- Charles M. Vest, President, Massachusetts Institute of Technology

"Nanotechnology has given us the tools. . .to play with the ultimate toy box of nature - atoms and molecules. Everything is made from it. . . .The possibilities to create new things appear limitless. . ."
-- Horst Stormer, Nobel Laureate, Columbia University, Lucent Technologies

Currently receiving vast amounts of research funding from government and industry alike, nanotechnology is the science of matter at the scale of one-billionth of a meter or 1/75,000th the size of a human hair. In addition to the numerous advantages provided by this scale of miniaturization, quantum physics effects at this size range provide additional novel properties. By manipulating atoms at this building-block level, scientists can create stronger, lighter materials with tailored properties. Combining research from many disciplines, near-future nanotechnology applications involve everything from scratch-proof glass to internal drug delivery systems to a sugar cube-sized computer capable of storing the information from the entire United States Library of Congress.

Since 1992 and the publication of K. Eric Drexler's Nanosystems, John Wiley & Sons has been at the forefront in providing the knowledge needed to advance this dynamic field. Combining the areas of physics, materials science, chemistry, optics, biology, and engineering, the Wiley Nanotechnology Bookstore offers readers everything from classic references to the latest bestsellers.
