Nanotechnology *suitable for home teaching*

A Catalyst article about nanotechnology, the science of building tiny devices. Opinions differ on the use of nanotechnology, one school of thought is that it will be the answer to many of the biggest challenges in medicine, electronics and defence, another is that it will lead to opening up a dangerous world of technologies which could get out of control.

This article is from Catalyst: GCSE Science Review 2006, Volume 16, Issue 3.
