Latest News
November 2007: From now on, nanoworld-related news can be easily retrieved from the blog:
nanoworld-labelled blog entriesDecember 2004: There has been a flood of nano-themed books this year (I reviewed a few of them). David Goodsell's BioNanotechnology, and the Springer Handbook of Nanotechnology are the only ones that impressed me. Should I write a sequel, e.g. "Further Travels to the Nanoworld"? Not sure yet.
May 2003: Why has "grey goo" become so fashionable lately? I am quite puzzled!
November 2002: Published a "special report" on Nanotechnology in Prospect magazine.
October 2002: A growing public interest in nanotech has probably helped to shift some copies: The mid-year sales results add up to more than 5000 copies sold (hardback and paperback combined).
