"Regulation and Risk Assessment of Nanomaterials -- Too Little, Too Late?"

Steffen Foss Hansen is a Ph.D. candidate at the Technical University of Denmark's Department of Environmental Engineering.    Here is a link to his well-written Ph.D. thesis -- "Regulation and Risk Assessment of Nanomaterials -- Too Little, Too Late?"
Dr. Hansen's thesis investigates whether existing environmental, health, and safety regulations and risk assessment techniques are adequate for nanotechnology and provides "some recommendations on how to govern nanotechnologies."   While I don't always agree with Dr. Hansen on nano-related EHS issues, there is no doubt that his work is detailed, thorough, and thought provoking.
