Our analysis of the audiovisual techniques employed by nanotechnology stakeholders shows that well-chosen sounds can help to win public trust, create value and convey the weird reality of objects on the nanoscale. Thesis Top Why do we see history so differently?   pp611 - 612 Chris Toumey doi:10.1038/nnano.2017.138 Chris Toumey illustrates how different groups of people involved with nanotechnology have different views on the history of the field and feel differently about its importance.
