International Handbook on Regulating Nanotechnologies
Vor etwa zweieinhalb Jahren hat sich die Innovationgesellschaft die Gelegenheit wahrgenommen, an einem Buchprojekt mitzuarbeiten mit dem Ziel, die Regulierung der Nanotechnologien in einem Handbuch aufzubereiten. Das Ergebnis dieses Projekts wurde Ende letzten Jahres vom Verlag Edward Elgar unter Herausgeberschaft von Graeme A. Hodge, Diana M. Bowman und Andrew D. Maynard veröffentlicht. Werfen Sie hier anhand der Buchkapitel "Voluntary measures in nanotechnology risk governance: the difficulty of holding the wolf by the ears" (Kapitel 20) und "Approaching the nanoregulation problem in chemicals legislation in the EU and US" (Kapitel 12) einen unverbindlichen Blick in das Handbuch.
The Handbook integrates 24 chapters with thoughtful contributions from a number of renowned authors and experts in the field. Thanks to the Publisher, the authors are allowed to present their chapters on their webpage.
The International Handbook on Regulating Nanotechnologies contains the following contributions. Where we can offer you the opportunity to sneak into a chapter for free, a link is provided. The opening and closing chapters of the Editors can be accessed via the Risk Science Blog of Andrew A. Maynard (Co-Editor).
