This volume consists of a variety of invited contributions by highly experienced educators, scientists, and industrialists, and is structured to cover important aspects of the field, from underlying principles to the most abstract concepts in nanotechnology. The program was split into four sessions, viz: environmental friendly nanotechnologies and risk assessments; environmental and biological risks of nanobiotechnology, nanobionics and hybrid organic-silicon nanodevices; fundamental nano-processess: from theory to technological applications and risk assessments; and the social aspects of nanotechnological revolution. Theoretical deductions, experiment, sociological, ecological and economical aspects were all inclusive to develop an integrated approach to the problems facing our civilization. It will be of considerable interest and value to those already pursuing or considering careers in the field of nanostructured materials and nanotechnology, in general. It also serves as a valuable source of information for those interested in related aspects of the field.
