This book is a great choice for an introductory course in Nanotechnology. It introduces the scientific principles that make nanotechnology possible and describes the exciting advances in the field. It is especially appropriate for students with a limited scientific background, since it lays the ground work for understanding the concepts covered in the book. -Holly Moore, Salt Lake Community College, USA

Author Information

Wesley C. Sanders is currently an assistant professor at Salt Lake Community College. He teaches courses in nanotechnology, materials science, chemistry, and microscopy. While serving as an assistant professor, he has published articles in the Journal of Chemical Education describing undergraduate labs for use in introductory, nanotechnology courses. He earned a BSEd. in science education from Western Carolina University (1999). Later, he earned a M.S. in chemistry from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte (2005) and a Ph.D. in chemistry from Virginia Tech (2008). His initial experiences with nanotechnology occurred while studying self-assembled monolayers on gold with a scanning electrochemical microscope as a doctoral student at Virginia Tech. After receiving his Ph.D., he examined bacterial nanofilaments with an atomic force microscope while working as a postdoctoral researcher at the U.S. Naval Research Lab in Washington D.C.
