One promising approach is reverse engineering of the brain in order to emulate biology.

Contrast this technological wonderland with the linear perspective of the driving forces in business and the economy, measurements such as energy costs, commodity prices, and capital investment.

The linear view and the [...]

Atoms and molecules are measured in nanometers.

Scientists at Texas A&M are moving in the [...]
