"Nanotechnology Law" -- Now Online

Readers may be interested in learning that my 2009 book "Nanotechnology Law" is now online. You can find it on Westlaw as Nanotechnology Law (NANOTECH). 

The Westlaw version is very helpful because you can now electronically search for any nano-related legal topic and let your computer do all the work -- it even provides links to the footnotes.

As another shameless plug, "Nanotechnology Law" is the only comprehensive legal text on nanotechnology currently on the market and weighs in at 1006 pages.  (All the better reason to use the Westlaw search function).

Finally, I am in the process of updating the book for the 2010 edition.  Thus, if there is anything important from 2009 that you would like to see analyzed in the 2010 edition -- please let me know and I will see what I can do.
