		Mathematics, while not a science, is closely allied to the sciences because of their extensive use of it.
		The physical sciences include physics, chemistry, and astronomy; the earth sciences (sometimes considered a part of the physical sciences) include geology, paleontology, oceanography, and meteorology; and the life sciences include all the branches of biology such as botany, zoology, genetics, and medicine.
		Science, in the modern sense of the term, came into being in the 16th and 17th cent., with the merging of the craft tradition with scientific theory and the evolution of the scientific method.

	Period and Process in National and Colonial Science
		Historians of science and technology are in a position to look at the whole question of periodization with a critical eye, since the well-known periods imposed by European political history seem largely irrelevant for many, if not most, of their purposes.
		The extent of this abruptly downward plunge may be demonstrated by comparing the absolute number of teachers, students, and journals of science during the twenty-year period of activity with the same figures taken from the years of decline that accompanied and followed the war of independence.
		Science is everywhere the same, an unproblematic given, a positivist conception that fails to make accurate distinctions among sciences and technologies.

	The SF Site Featured Review: Paper Bodies
		Her interest in the new science of the time was encouraged through her close friendship with William's brother Sir Charles Cavendish, a mathematician and scientist.
		In May 1667, she was invited (as a potential patron) to attend a meeting of the Royal Society of London, though as a woman she was barred from joining the Society.
		While her literary contributions as an early feminist, scientist and science commentator were substantial and are well represented here, it is the inclusion of her 1666 science fiction novel The Description of a New World, Called the Blazing-World that makes this book relevant to SF Site readers and which I will focus my review on.

		The UK’s favourite science populariser, Richard Dawkins, wrote: “The … thing you can say to Prince Charles is that, if you look at a maize cob, it is hugely different from a wild maize cob and that has been achieved not by introducing foreign genes but by artificially selecting genes.
		As a biologist and science writer I have watched the development of genetic engineering from the start.3 My central thesis here is that genetic modification is just the latest technology to serve the massive intensification of agriculture.
		Science is just not capable of providing a single, simple answer.

		But "a lot of us wonder whether it's really important in the field." He and others note that Bt bacteria have been sprayed on farm fields for 3 decades, and that earlier studies had shown that beneficial predator insects were unaffected.
		Even if the technology has yielded few clear-cut benefits in the developed world, agbiotech backers say that in the developing world, new crops in the pipeline could improve yields for farmers and make tremendous strides toward reducing malnutrition and environmental degradation.
		Other researchers are developing plant-based vaccines to prevent diarrheal and other diseases in the developing world, says plant biochemist Charles Arntzen, president of the Boyce-Thompson Institute for Plant Research in Ithaca, New York.

		I'm amused by the intensity of some of these postings, and some claims that disproving existing results is somehow "irresponsible." In fact, this is how science advances: we test earlier results and often disprove them.
		It's frustrating when one is one the disproved end (as we all are at times), but traditionally we focus on the technical issues rather than attack others for daring to address them.

	Commentary -- Bt or not Bt: Is that the question?
		Recent public concerns over the transgenic (genetically modified) plants and nontarget impacts such as those from Bt-toxin expressing corn pollen on the monarch butterfly populations have escalated, despite good pest management intentions and good science (1-9).
		Plant resistance to insect pests has evolved naturally over many millions of years and involves (i) both constitutive and inducible phytochemical and morphological mechanisms in plants, (ii) counteradaptations to plant defenses by the herbivores, and (iii) biotic interactions of the multitrophic level communities of insect pathogens, parasites, and predators (10-13).
