The next wave of science writing is here. Editor Max Brockman has
talent-spotted 19 young scientists, working on leading-edge
research across a wide range of fields. Nearly half of them are
women, and all of them are great communicators: their passion and
excitement makes this collection a wonderfully invigorating read.
We hear from an astrobiologist at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in
Pasadena about the possibilities for life elsewhere in the solar
system (and the universe); from the director of Yale's Comparative
Cognition Laboratory about why we keep making the same mistakes;
from a Cambridge lab about DNA synthesis; from the Tanzanian
savannah about what lies behind attractiveness; we hear about how
to breed plants to withstand disease, about ways to extract
significance from the Interne's enormous datasets, about
oceanography, neuroscience, microbiology, and evolutionary
psychology.
