    Nanomedicine's brave new world

    Very interesting discussion of how a technology could develop over the next couple of decades. The author's concern over access to the technology is strange in that he limits his discussion to the severely flawed US healthcare system and does not apparently anticipate any changes in that system over that same couple of decades. I hope he's wrong.
