Discussions of the basic structural, nanotechnology, and
system engineering principles, as well as an introductory overview of
essential concepts and methods in biotechnology, will be
included. Text is presented side-by-side with extensive use of
high-quality illustrations prepared using cutting edge computer
graphics techniques. Includes numerous examples, such
applications in genetic engineering. Represents the only
available introduction and overview of this interdisciplinary field,
merging the physical and biological sciences. Concludes with
the authors' expert assessment of the future promise of
nanotechnology, from molecular "tinkertoys" to
nanomedicine. David Goodsell is author of two trade books,
Machinery of Life and Our Molecular Nature, and Arthur Olson is the
world's leader in molecular graphics and nano-scale representation.
