Description - Nanotechnology and the Public by Susanna Hornig Priest
This quick, easy-to-read reference supplies data and interpretation on the public perception of nanotechnology, along with a discussion of the implications for risk communication. An integral component of the Perspectives in Nanotechnology Series, the book is based primarily on a review of available social science evidence as well as the author's research concerning public perceptions of nanotechnology. She applies lessons learned from other emerging technologies to help clarify and define the issues of risk and the public that accompany nanotechnology, and to suggest the challenges involved in managing those risks. The book demnostrates how the wide variety of nanotechnologies under development precludes reliance on a single approach.
