註釋
Micromachine technology and development is very recent in the long history of mechanical engineering. Yet as new microscopes make the miniature realms of micromechanisms accessible it is at this tiny scale that the biggest opportunities and challenges are to be found.Fujimasa, a leading Japanese researcher in this field, examines the brief history of the subject as well as the technologies that make micromachine fabrication possible. By examining the workings of life, and cells in particular, as good exemplars of micromachines, he is able to develop ideas fornew applications and working principles.There is, in Feynman's famous words about the limits of miniaturization, "Plenty of room at the bottom".
