As scientists and technologists discover how to engineer matter at
the nanoscale in increasingly sophisticated ways, conventional
approaches to ensuring safe use are being brought into question.
Nanotechnologies are challenging traditional regulatory regimes;
but they are also prompting new thinking on developing and using
emerging technologies safely. In this Handbook, leading
international authors from industry, government, non-governmental
organisations and academia examine the complex and often
controversial regulatory challenges presented by nanotechnologies.
Across several disciplinary boundaries, they explore how the future
regulatory landscape may evolve. From the Europe Union to the
United States, workplaces to personal products, and statutory
instruments through to softer approaches, it is clear that
considerable vigilance will be needed in governing these powerful
and novel technologies. To succeed, society will need new thinking,
new partnerships and new mechanisms to balance the benefits of
these technologies against their possible downsides. Anything less
will prompt cries of illegitimacy and potentially compromise a
promising new realm of technology innovation.
