Nano and Life

This is a popular science book about nanotechnology and its applications, covering the fields of biophysics, medicine and engineering science. Nanotechnology is a star in the fields of biology and medicine, and it also fascinates physicists. It is one of the typical scientific fields where multiple disciplines intersect. For a long time, questions that have attracted scientists from various fields, such as the origin of life and the diversity of life, are far from being clearly answered; however, the gradually accelerating integration of disciplines has become an inevitable trend, making us realize that we are at an inflection point: technology is about to change our understanding of life, and this will give humans greater power to cure diseases. This book concisely and comprehensively describes the process of the integration of biology, medicine, physics and other disciplines, and introduces the resulting new science. The author places the study of life in a broad context, aiming to gain a new understanding of the rules that govern the operation of the entire universe. He also looks forward to the profound impact this fusion of disciplines will have on human health and the improvement of quality of life.
