The affordable and easy-to-use technology is good news for developing
countries, where 3D printing could open up exciting opportunities for
research, education and humanitarian projects. As an institute dedicated
to promoting sustainable science in the developing world, ICTP is prepared
to advance the adoption of this technology in these regions. The book's
editors -Enrique Canessa, Carlo Fonda and Marco Zennaro- want readers to
understand and explore the huge potential that 3D technology provides.
