Nanotechnology promises to be the third wave of technological innovation, butthe rapid integration of nanomaterials into consumer products is not without concern. "Nanotechnological Risks" presents various methods for evaluating health, safety, and environmental nanotechnology risks. Describing the state of the science, this book provides current and proposed approaches for managing risks in occupational environments, including screening approaches, while offering general, practical guidelines for safety when working with nanoscale materials at the research stage. The text also examines how risk assessment can influence environmental decision making and examines research needs.
