Crikey, how did Freitas write this thing?! I thought I didn't get out much, he must be a slave to his desktop. Like Nanosystems and Engines Of Creation before it, it has astounded and encouraged me. Rational humans are clever enough to sort out their problems, and as a new Engineering student I hope to join this noble venture. It's early days of course, but that just means there's bound to be more competition for being the first to develop these capabilities. Though I have found the Maths/Science daunting (but fascinating) after coming from an Education/Arts career, it seems to me that working to understand the book is the least I can do. In the process I can get a jump ahead of my colleagues! I look forward to seeing the other volumes in print, and a popular work some time after that. With the announcement of the Human Genome rough draft today, I hope that a new wave of support and interest for this marvellous prospect will occur. For mine, I'm eager to get a BSc in Nanotechnology and join the adventure! Those in Australia might like to check out the link below, to Flinders University's BSc (Nano) programme. One plus of the coming era in health care is that the societally fashionable deadline to stop fooling about with learning and just make a living is over! Just as well, I doubt I'll be up to speed on all this for a decade or so at the earliest! :-)
