Reviews
""With accessible anecdotes and reasoned speculation, Johnson and Meany's story of graphene will delight popular-science fans." --Booklist "Graphene is a rarity: a book about a complex scientific subject that not only informs and enlightens but also entertains the reader. I came out of this with a new appreciation for something I'd known little about before but now realize is future-shaping. Read this book and behold a miracle of tomorrow." --Allen Steele, Hugo and Heinlein Award-winning science fiction author"Purely carbon, graphene is a remarkable material whose properties amaze us and whose applications span all of human activity--from nanotechnology to interstellar flight--maybe even to the evolution of humans. This book delves into the who, what, where, when, why, and how of graphene, with interesting stories and facts, suggesting possibilities that Johnson and Meany say may change the world. With a mix of physics, engineering, history, and culture, there is much to learn as well as to be entertained by here." --Dr. Louis Friedman, cofounder and executive director emeritus, the Planetary Society"Graphene is an enjoyable tour of the past, present, and future of the simplest form of carbon. It's a balanced exploration of the promises of graphene for technology, engineering, and health, along with the risks and challenges. With plenty of historical anecdotes, scientific primers, and forward-thinking speculation, the authors place graphene and graphene-like materials into familiar contexts." --Matthew R. Francis, physicist and science writer, BowlerHatScience.org"An enjoyable ride through the history and science of carbon materials, with graphene as the focus of a larger discussion of business, chemical periodicity, unique molecules, and a science-driven future. The authors do a wonderful job describing the promise, problems, pitfalls, and possibilities that likely await graphene--this newest entry into the vibrant world of material science." --Monty Fetterolf, Professor of Chemistry and Endowed Chair, University of South Carolina Aiken, PRAISE FOR THE WORK OF LES JOHNSON: "Conceptually simple and romantic, solar sailing is an enchanting technological solution for space exploration. ... Solar Sails: A Novel Approach to Interplanetary Travel is the latest book to explore this topic ... . Aimed at undergraduates, the book convincingly captures the history of ideas about solar sails, their current state of play and their future promise. ... Suitable for aerospace students and keen enthusiasts alike, this book may one day inspire some of them to build a solar-sail-powered vessel." - Nature (reviewing Solar Sails )
Synopsis
Two scientists give an enthusiastic, layperson's overview of a new supermaterial now in development that could transform many features of daily life, from creating new conveniences to improving health and safety. What if you discovered an infinitesimally thin material capable of conducting electricity, able to suspend millions of times its own weight, and yet porous enough to filter the murkiest water? And what if this incredible substance is created from the same element that fills the common pencil? That's graphene--a flat, two-dimensional, carbon-based molecule with a single sheet measuring only one atom thick. In this layperson's introduction to this revolutionary substance, a physicist and a chemist explain how graphene was developed, discuss the problems in scaling up production for large-scale commercial use, and forecast the potentially transformative effects of incorporating graphene into everyday life. Recent research developments include adding graphene to Silly Putty to make extremely sensitive and malleable medical sensors and compressing and fusing flakes of graphene to create a three-dimensional material that's ten times stronger than steel. This widely adaptable substance promises to change the way we interact with smartphones, laptops, information storage, and even condoms. It may also enable significant improvements to air purification, water filtration technologies, and drug delivery. This entertaining and widely accessible book offers a fascinating look into one of the most exciting developments in materials science in recent decades., What if you discovered an infinitesimally thin material capable of conducting electricity, able to suspend millions of times its own weight, and yet porous enough to filter the murkiest water?
