Tomorrow’s nanoscientist will have a truly interdisciplinary and nano-centric education, rather than, for example, a degree in chemistry with a specialization in nanoscience. For this to happen, the field needs a truly focused and dedicated textbook. Introduction to Nanoscience is such a textbook. This vibrantly illustrated, full-color masterwork introduces the nanoscale along with the societal impacts of nanoscience, and then presents an overview of characterization and fabrication methods. The authors systematically discuss the chemistry, physics, and biology aspects of nanoscience, providing a complete picture of the challenges, opportunities, and inspirations posed by each facet before giving a brief glimpse at nanoscience in action: nanotechnology.

Nanotechnology is no longer a subdiscipline of chemistry, engineering, or any other field. It represents the convergence of many fields, and therefore demands a new paradigm for teaching. Fundamentals of Nanotechnology is for the next generation of nanotechnologists. This 2009 CHOICE Award winner surveys the field’s broad landscape, exploring the physical basics such as nanorheology, nanofluidics, and nanomechanics, as well as industrial concerns such as manufacturing, reliability, and safety.
