Two Award-Winning Books from Bourne Research


MEMS & Nanotechnology for Kids Read More Details - Peek Inside!

2008 IPPY Award – Bronze Medal – Best Juvenile/Young Adult Non-Fiction

A basic introduction to MEMS & nanotechnology, the book explores what we can find at the micro- and nano-scale, and then takes a look at various MEMS devices and nanomaterials. Learn how they work and why they're useful in all kinds of products. Written for students ages 11-14 to inspire interest in science and engineering, although younger children and adults may also benefit from the easy-to-read explanations. With expanded discussion in the same reader-friendly format, A Consumer’s Guide to MEMS & Nanotechnology is the perfect reference companion.


A Consumer’s Guide to MEMS & Nanotechnology Read More Details – Peek Inside!

2008 Arizona Book Award – Honorable Mention – Best Science Book

“As a topic, nanotechnology is complex, controversial and cool all at the same time,” says Marlene Bourne, the book’s author. “A Consumer’s Guide to MEMS and Nanotechnology puts it all into perspective—not by looking at future ‘imagine this’ or ‘what if’ scenarios—but at how and why emerging technologies are being put to use in all kinds of really cool products today.”
