RICHARD FEYNMAN :
Tiny Machines - The Feynman Lecture on Nanotechnology.
Richard Feynman originated the idea of nanotechnology, or molecular manufacturing, in the early 1960s. The talk is the last recording ever made of Richard Feynman delivering his now-famous talk, "Tiny Machines," where he introduced the world to the subject of nanotechnology, and the only one delivered to a non-specialist audience. It took place in 1984 at the "Idiosyncratic Thinking Workshop" at Esalen Intitute, Big Sur, California. Here he explains his ideas to a general audience, and illustrates them using slides and diagrams. It is amusing, entertaining, informative, and a classic in the history of nanotechnology.
