More Praise for The Handbook of Nanotechnology
“As someone who has successfully transitioned nanotechnology
from the university lab to the commercial world, I can recommend
this book as a ‘must-read’ for nascent academic entrepreneurs,
those wishing to commercialize technologies they have developed
at the university. As a faculty member at a major research univer-
sity that is comprehensively involved in nanoscience and nano-
technology research, I come into continual contact with such
persons: I can now point them to the first book they should study.
The chapters on business development are particularly valuable;
I wish I had had this book 5 years ago.”
—Max G. Lagally, founder nPoint,
and professor of Surface Science,
at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
“In order for our society to realize the awe-inspiring potential for
revolutionary change which nanotechnology promises in every
industry from transportation to pharmaceuticals, complex issues
of business, public policy and law must be managed at the highest
levels of leadership in both the public and private sector. This
Handbook provides an invaluable guide for that leadership.”
—Rodney E. Slater,
former U.S. Secretary of Transportation
and partner at the law firm of Patton Boggs

“This is an excellent work that is both comprehensive and prac-
tical across a wide range of perspectives. It is great to have solid,
detailed analysis of and advice on the science, business, and policy
aspects of nanotechnology. This is one of the few publications to
identify both the commonality of nanotechnology with existing
industry and regulatory structures as well as its unique character-
istics that have implications for policy, law, and running a busi-
ness. It is a book that intelligently anticipates future developments
in policy and intellectual property, as well as mergers and other
financing activity.”
—Randy Levine, Ph.D.,
president and CEO, ZettaCore, Inc.
“Indispensable. I can’t imagine an attorney or policy maker not
having this book on their shelf. It is an extraordinarily insightful
and thorough book that delves into the intricacies of the emerg-
ing nanotechnology field in an accessible and easy-to-understand
manner.”
—F. Mark Modzelewski,
founder of the NanoBusiness Alliance
and managing director, Lux Research, Inc.
