Paper Summary:
This paper examines the dual aspect of "nanotechnology" - its popular promise versus its elusive applications - with reference to critical literature on the subject.From the Paper:
"As William Atkinson notes at the beginning of his book Nanocosm, while the term "nanotechnology" has become very fashionable in the popular media in recent years its concrete applications remain largely elusive (Atkinson 6). In many respects, this pattern of a scientific or technological idea that gains great popularity with little concrete support (e.g., cosmic string theory) can be seen to be a common theme in our culture today."More papers on Nanotechnology in "Nanocosm":
