what do scientists think? does it matter?

this was an interesting book. i'm not quite sure whether the questions were the kind of questions that i would have asked...but the price paid for the book was reasonable for the entertainment gleaned from the book.

WHAT SCIENTISTS THINK provides much food for thought.

Many books contain insights by scientists - but few offer the focus of WHAT SCIENTISTS THINK, which is to interview scientists about their thoughts. Personal conversations with twelve of the biggest names in international science today tells what they're working on, what worries and angers them, and the social and religious implications of their studies. From the impact of a cure for cancer to the threat from bioterrorism, WHAT SCIENTISTS THINK provides much food for thought. Diane C. Donovan California Bookwatch
