Nano-factories are interesting but I think safe biological enhancement, especially of intelligence, is going to be even more interesting. Anyone ever see the Limitless movie? Sure, that's not possible today but we are quickly unraveling the mysteries of the body.


Book by Nancy Kress: Beggars of Spain (series, actually). Great exploration of some of the social costs of this type of enhancement...


And I would be unhappy if I forgot to mention Diamond Age by Neal Stephenson...
