There is no doubt that nanoscience will be the dominant direction
for technology in this century, and that this science will
influence our lives to a large extent as well as open completely
new perspectives on all scientific and technological disciplines.
To be able to produce optimal nanosystems with tailor-made
properties, it is necessary to analyze and construct such systems
in advance by adequate theoretical and computational methods. Since
we work in nanoscience and nanotechnology at the ultimate level, we
have to apply the basic laws of physics. What methods and tools are
relevant here? The book gives an answer to this question. The
background of the theoretical methods and tools is critically
discussed, and also the "world view" on which these physical laws
are based.Such a debate is not only of academic interest but is of
highly general concern, and this is because we constantly move in
nanoscience and nanotechnology between two extreme poles, between
"infinite life" and "total destruction". On the one hand, through
nanotechnology aging might be soon a fact of the past; on the other
hand, in the nano realm uncontrolled processes could lead to a
total destruction of the living conditions on the Earth.
