I'm dreadfully biased as I was a panelist on one of the programs, but I was surprised at how entertaining, well balanced and thought-provoking they were. Of course, it would be great to see a Nova-style show on what nano is and what it can/might do, but Nanotechnology: The Power of Small is pretty good at teasing out some of the more complex challenges society will have to face as nanotechnology matures. The whole series can be viewed over the web btw at www.powerofsmall.com Andrew Hi Christine,

I found the show to be nicely balanced and quite stimulating. They didn't cover everything that I wanted to see, but maybe next time.
