Let Nan and Bucky Dog be your guide

Nanotechnology for Grades 1-6+ (By Andrea Harmer, The NanoTechnology Group Inc.)

Written primarily for children, but suitable for any audience, Nanotechnology for Grades 1-6+ is a glimpse into the exciting new field of study in science and engineering for the new millennium, known as nanotechnology.

Nanotechnology promises to affect our lives in many ways over the next twenty years, biologically, environmentally, scientifically, and technically. This book will give you a basic understanding of why nanotechnology has become the new “buzz word” in science and why and how scientists, businessmen, engineers, and medical researchers are clamoring to find out more about how we can control and manipulate matter on the atomic scale.
