Edward Elgar Publishing New Global Frontiers in Regulation: The Age of Nanotechnology

Explore the complex landscape of atomic-scale manufacturing with New Global Frontiers in Regulation: The Age of Nanotechnology. Part of the Monash Studies in Global Movements series, this volume examines the tension between the potential of the nano-economy and the risks of unregulated commercial development. While some see a future that outperforms the information age, others warn of toxicological risks similar to the history of asbestos. This book provides a timely look at the international calls for nanotechnology regulation. By studying how we regulate current technologies, such as biotechnology, this work investigates the best paths forward for managing these scientific advances. It is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of engineering, technology, and global policy. This used book is in good condition, making it a practical choice for students, researchers, and professionals interested in the future of nanotechnology and global regulatory frameworks.
