THE NATURALNESS OF THE NATURALISTIC FALLACY AND THE ETHICS OF NANOTECHNOLOGY
fact value natural selection natural adaptation microchip natural laws symbionts
2016/6/12
In the first part of this paper, I try to clear the ground from frequent misconceptions about the relationship between fact and value by examining some uses of the adjective “natural” in ethical contr...
Gestalt Switch in Molecular Image Perception: The Aesthetic Origin of Molecular Nanotechnology in Supramolecular Chemistry
Aesthetics of science molecular representations
2008/4/14
According to ‘standard histories’ of nanotechnology, the colorful pictures of atoms produced by scanning probe microscopists since the 1980s essentially inspired visions of molecular nanotechnology. I...

Nanotechnology's metaphysical research program
It is often asserted that the starting point of nanotechnology was the classic talk given by Feynman (1959), in which he said: "The principles of physic...
The bibliography includes scholarly publications in philosophy, ethics, sociology, and history of nanoscience and nanotechnology (nanoSTS) as well as selected reports. Send suggestions with electronic...
The Drexler-Smalley Debate on Nanotechnology: Incommensurability at Work?
nanotechnology Drexler-Smalley debate molecular assemblers
2008/4/3
In a recent debate, Eric Drexler and Richard Smalley have discussed the chemical and physical possibility of constructing molecular assemblers – devices that guide chemical reactions by placing, with ...
Although many active scientists deplore the publicity about Drexler’s futuristic scenario, I will argue that the controversies it has generated are very useful, at least in one respect. They help clar...
Nanotechnology and Nature On Two Criteria for Understanding Their Relationship
nanotechnology concept of nature laws of nature life artificial life
2008/4/3
Two criteria are proposed for characterizing the diverse and not yet perspicuous relations between nanotechnology and nature. They assume a concept of nature as that which is not made by human action....
