I her latest book Darwin in the Genome , Lynn Caporale offers an exciting new theory that sees past both the ideas of a purely random model of evolution, and the alternative of the action of an external designer, to reveal a more comprehensible mechanism at work. A mechanism that looks startlingly strategic and purposeful, and yet is consistent with the basic Darwinian framework. Simply put: Not all mutations are random accidents. In the struggle for survival,from pathogens to flowers, birds to orangutans, baker's yeast to human beings,the fittest genomes become effective strategists, responding to, and in fact anticipating, challenges and opportunities in their environments.

Features - The Lab - Australian Broadcasting Corporation's Gateway to Science. Bernie Hobbs is an award-winning science writer and broadcaster with ABC Science Online. Her job lets her do two of the things she loves best - hear about what's new in the world of science from the people who are making it happen, and turn high-brow jargon-laden material into great stories for the rest of us. While Bernie's background is in medical science and teaching, she's also interested in how science and big ideas fit into real life - culturally, socially and environmentally. She gets to explore that territory regularly as a judge on ABC TV's The New Inventors, a new take on one of her favourite shows as a kid. "Everyone has ideas, but I love the passion and grunt that our inventors show in getting their ideas from the back of the envelope to the shed and beyond". When not being impressed by our country's inventors, Bernie can be heard regularly discussing science on ABC radio, and seen having way too much fun each week in the ABC's new science show for kids, the experiMENTALS.

Science Wars What Scientists Know and How They Know It. The status of scientific knowledge that began in ancient Greece, raged furiously among scientists, social scientists, and humanists during the 1990s, and has re-emerged in today's conflict between science and religion over issues such as evolution. Professor Steven L. Goldman, whose Teaching Company course on Science in the 20th Century was praised by customers as "a scholarly achievement of the highest order" and "excellent in every way," leads you on a quest for the nature of scientific reasoning in this intellectually pathbreaking lecture series, Science Wars: What Scientists Know and How They Know It.

Those who have taken Professor Goldman's previous course, which is an intensive survey of the revolution in scientific knowledge from 1900 to 2000, may have wondered: if what counts as scientific knowledge can transform so dramatically within only 100 years, what exactly is scientific knowledge? Science Wars addresses this surprisingly difficult question. What Is Reality? Stan Shostak. Welcome to Digital Studio SA.
