Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the spirit of Alvin Toffler’s acclaimed works peering into the future of the technological society, Communication Shock is a concise history of communication technologies and an exploration of the possible social and human impacts of nanotechnology on the ecology of human communication. As we become increasingly more networked with communication technologies, we must come to understand and confront the social impact of these changes. More importantly, we must wisely choose in embracing or rejecting these technologies and exploring how we might do both by striking an appropriate balance. Grounded in communication theory and praxis, Communication Shock brings some objectivity to the discussion of technology, maps its development, and encourages a rational conversation about its potential problems and promise. It challenges readers to reach their own conclusions – about the future, imagined and unimaginable, about the fundamental values in conflict, and how one might choose to embrace or contest them to maintain individual autonomy in the face of increasingly ubiquitous marketing and technological change. Present and emerging communications technologies hold the promise for a bold new future, but they also have their inherent risks and drawbacks. Communication shock is the human response, conscious or unconscious, wherein the individual chooses to resist the growing pervasiveness of technology in his or her life by seeking ways to reduce or redirect new technologies or to reject the addition of such technologies altogether. Here is a framework for understanding the potential of the evolving technologies, determining which are essential and which are distractions from the life that one believes to be meaningful, and making informed choices for the life one wishes to live.

Book excerpt: Nanotechnology is a multidisciplinary field that involves the manipulation and control of matter at the nanoscale, typically ranging from 1 to 100 nanometers. At this scale, the properties of materials can significantly differ from their bulk counterparts, leading to unique and enhanced functionalities. The physics behind nanotechnology encompasses various principles and phenomena that govern the behavior of matter at the nanoscale. In this book, we can see how these principles help explain phenomena related to heat transfer, phase transitions, and fluctuations at the nanoscale. Understanding these principles is crucial for designing and optimizing nanoscale devices and systems. One of the fundamental concepts in nanotechnology is quantum mechanics. Quantum mechanics describes the behavior of particles at the atomic and subatomic levels. It provides a framework for understanding phenomena such as wave-particle duality, quantization of energy levels, and tunneling. In nanotechnology, quantum mechanics plays a crucial role in explaining the electronic properties of nanomaterials. Mathematical modelling plays a vital role in understanding and predicting the behavior of nanoscale systems. It provides a quantitative framework for describing complex phenomena and optimizing device performance. Mathematical models in nanotechnology often involve differential equations, statistical methods, and computational simulations.It is crucial for understanding the mechanical properties of nanomaterials. Models based on continuum mechanics, such as elasticity theory and plasticity theory, can predict the behavior of nanomaterials under different loading conditions. These models help in designing materials with desired mechanical properties and optimizing their performance. Mathematical models also aid in the design and optimization of nanoscale devices such as sensors, transistors, and solar cells. By simulating device behavior using mathematical models, researchers can optimize device parameters to achieve desired performance characteristics.

This book was released on 2007-09-19 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the role of surface effects in optical phenomena in nanoscience, from two different perspectives. When systems are reduced in volume, the ratio of surface versus volume increases. At the level of single nanostructures this translates into an enhanced role of interfacial chemistry and thermodynamics. At the level of systems of nanostructures, it translates into larger density on interfaces, which in turn leads to such intriguing collective effects as plasmonics or multiple reflection and refraction phenomena. The book highlights both perspectives presenting sample applications. Without claiming to be exhaustive, the book aims to stimulate readers in this potentially rewarding field.

Book excerpt: New York's Nanotechnology Model: Building the Innovation Economy is the summary of a 2013 symposium convened by the National Research Council Board on Science, Technology, and Economic Policy and members of the Nano Consortium that drew state officials and staff, business leaders, and leading national figures in early-stage finance, technology, engineering, education, and state and federal policies to review challenges, plans, and opportunities for innovation-led growth in New York. The symposium participants assessed New York's academic, industrial, and human resources, identified key policy issues, and engaged in a discussion of how the state might leverage regional development organizations, state initiatives, and national programs focused on manufacturing and innovation to support its economic development goals. This report highlights the accomplishments and growth of the innovation ecosystem in New York, while also identifying needs, challenges, and opportunities. New York's Nanotechnology Model reviews the development of the Albany nanotech cluster and its usefulness as a model for innovation-based growth, while also discussing the New York innovation ecosystem more broadly.
