	Evolution: Glossary
		Conway Morris, Simon: Paleobiologist and professor in the Department of Earth Sciences at Cambridge University in the U.K. His research centers around the early evolution of the metazoans, and he is a leading authority on Cambrian and Precambrian fossils.
		His research emphasizes combining data from living and fossil organisms to study the origins and fates of lineages and adaptations, to develop an understanding of the underlying dynamics of speciation and extinction that could lead to a general theory of evolutionary novelty.
		With degrees in science, divinity, and history, he has taught the history of science at Harvard University and at the Open University in the U.K. morphology: The study of the form, shape, and structure of organisms.

	Computer Science
		Our goal is to introduce students to all facets of the discipline, and to give them an appreciation of the historical, ethical, and social context of computing, and the responsibility of the computer professional and casual computer user in a modern society.
		This course introduces students to both digital electronic circuits and digital signal processing, and would be valuable both for those planning to go on in technical careers in computer science or in physics, and for scientists who wish to develop tools for the collection and analysis of data.
		This course is an introduction to theoretical aspects of Computer Science such as formal language and automata theory and complexity theory.

		Simultaneously, it serves to underscore how science as a discipline arises from curiosity, intellectual commitment, and determined effort.
		A noteworthy strength of this book is that it weaves the story of Benjamin Banneker’s life within the contexts of both history and science.
		Born in 1731, Banneker's life spanned some of the most significant events in the development of an emerging nation.

		In his long career as a writer Daniel Defoe never tired of advocating the value of personal observation and experience, or his belief in man's God-given duty to explore and make productive use of nature.
		In this first major study of Bacon's legacy to Defoe, Ilse Vickers shows that the ideas and concepts of Baconian science were a major influence on Defoe's thinking and writing.
		She outlines the intellectual principles behind Baconian science, and considers a wide range of Defoe's work, from the point of view of his familiarity with the ideals of experimental philosophy.

		In this first major study of Bacon's legacy to Defoe, Ilse Vickers shows that the ideas and concepts of Baconian science were a major influence on Defoe's way of thinking and writing.
