Even now, in the name of enhancing defensive capabilities, nations are strengthening their war-making capabilities. It is in this context that the uses of nanotechnology, a powerful new technology that has the potential to transform practically everything we use and do, needs some serious attention.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The dramatic potential of nanotechnology can be visualized by imagining the possibility of converting coal into diamonds. Both coal and diamonds are made of carbon atoms, but the atoms are arranged in different ways. Now, if we can work with those atoms and rearrange them, it will be possible to convert coal into diamonds.]]></description>
