nanotechnology

Technology is behind almost everything humans do, including traveling, learning, eating, and having fun. The word "technology" refers to various complex systems intended to make people's lives simpler. Readers will learn about many technological advancements made throughout the years as well as the ways technology will likely continue to advance for decades and centuries to come. Intricately drawn illustrations make the content enticing and understandable for readers, and the intriguing fact boxes further explore the STEM content.

"In this book, Philip Moriarty introduces the key scientific themes and concepts underpinning the field, including interatomic and intermolecular forces, single atom imaging, quantum confinement, self-assembly, molecular machinery, and nanomagnetism. Moriarty includes results from ground-breaking scientific studies, such as scanning probe microscope images of atomic and molecular 'landscapes', providing visceral and intuitive insights into the nanoscopic world"--Provided by publisher.

"An acclaimed physicist and debut picture-book author introduces readers to the tiny building blocks that make up the world around us. Elegant, friendly text and stylish illustrations explain atoms, the elements, and other essential science concepts and reveal how very (very) small materials are manipulated to create self-washing windows; stronger, lighter airplanes; and other wonders of nanotechnology. Further explanation in the back matter gives more detail about various scientists' roles and the tools they use. Splashed with bright primary colors, this tribute to the tiny will inspire curious minds of every stripe"--Provided by publisher.
