Abstract

Article discusses the results of an internet survey from 3909 responses. Survey revealed that respondents had a level of enthusiasm for the potential benefits of nanotechnology, and a limited amount of concern over the possible environmental health and safety risks. They associated nanotechnology with the space program, nuclear power, and cloning research, but rate it more favorably.
