Nanotechnology is radically altering the world in ways almost unimaginable
in only the very recent past. With applications in arenas from medicine and
science to warfare and even the world of sports, nanotechnology opens the
doorway to a vast array of breathtaking possibilities. In this series of
clearly articulated lectures, Professor Deborah Gibbs Sauder explores the
world of nanotechnology and all its astounding applications, while also
examining the ethical issues raised by the science and the impact
nanotechnology is having on big business.

a much larger classroom, thanks to the recent release of her course
"Understanding Nanotechnology: A Bridge to the Future" by The Modern Scholar
publishers. In a series of recorded lectures, Sauder explains how
nanotechnology is radically altering the world - from medicine and science
to warfare and even the world of sports. She looks at many nanotechnology
applications and explores their impact on big business and society in general.
