Bellouard (micro/nanoscale engineering, Eindhoven U. of Technology, the Netherlands) covers all aspects of the current state and future prospects of miniaturized systems that interact with and manipulate objects. The first chapter introduces concepts in this field which combines materials science, mechanical engineering, and applied physics. Succeeding chapters treat the mechanics and physical properties of materials in the context of microbiotics, and their applications in medicine, e.g., as tools for mini-invasive surgery and "smart pills" (à la the 1966 sci-fi movie Fantastic Voyage) and in microassembly technologies. The text includes chapter exercises and further reading, recent illustrations of student projects, and appendices on classical and flexible joint equivalents found in mechanisms, and properties of selected materials.
