Abstract

This chapter develops a thought experiment that nanotechnology is ‘meant’ in a science-based natural law sense to develop at this time in human history to remedy our great challenges to human and environmental health. It sets efforts to develop regulatory schemes for safe development of nanotechnology (drawing in particular on examples of nanoparticles in sunscreens, nanosilver and nanomedicines) in this broader, evolving context of human moral responsibility.
