	HYLE 9-1 (2003): Sensual Chemistry: Aesthetics as a Motivation for Research
		For organic chemist Robert Woodward (Nobel Prize, 1965), the attraction of chemistry was in part the challenge of performing syntheses that no one else could carry out, but it was certainly the sensual aspects of the subject, too.

	Duesberg on AIDS- Rethinking AIDS; The Tragic Cost Of Premature Consensus (Book by Robert Root-Bernstein)

		Coming at a time when many in AIDS research and the public are becoming increasingly dissatisfied with the official AIDS establishment, Root-Bernstein's book should stimulate intensive reappraisal of our approach to AIDS both within the medical research community and in the society at large.

	Michael Fumento reviews: "Rethinking AIDS — The Tragic Cost of Premature Consensus."
		Root-Bernstein is joined in his heresy most notably by the biologist Pete Duesberg at Berkeley, whose views have been publicized in journals ranging from Policy Review to the Atlantic.
		Taking a tack from Duesberg, Root-Bernstein attributes tremendous scientific importance to the fact that the HIV-AIDS connection does not satisfy Koch's postulates, a system devised a century ago by Robert Koch, a German physician, to establish the relationhip between a disease and its suspected cause.
		But Koch, though a brilliant researcher, was not the epidemiological equivalent of Moses the Lawgiver, and, in any event, viruses had not even been discovered when he formulated his rules.

		Robert Root-Bernstein concluded that exposure to semen through anal intercourse can initiate lymphocytotoxic autoimmunity.
		In his AIDS Bibliography he writes that Robert Root-Bernstein "has ceased to be a serious contributor to the AIDS debate." On numerous occasions during his participation on the email list, Cline showed contempt for researchers and list members who dared to discuss the unmentionable factor of anal sex as a risk factor for AIDS:
		First of all, I believe that all these theories about gay men becoming sick from too much anal intercourse were dreamed up by the scientists involved based on their false notions of what it is we do in bed (and sometimes NOT in bed, too).

		The Root-Bernsteins, Robert (physiology professor, Michigan State Univ.) and Mich?le (history and writing teacher), have been studying creativity for more than a decade.
		Using results from these studies, they have identified the following 13 thinking tools to help us tap into our own personal genius and free our minds to be more creative: observing, imaging, abstracting, recognizing patterns, forming patterns, analogizing, body thinking, empathizing, dimensional thinking, modeling, playing, transforming, and synthesizing.
		Sparks of Genius is an excellent analysis of the variety of different types of "tools" or techniques that innovators and creators use.

	An overview of AIDS controversies
		Major emphasis throughout this article is placed on the arguments of modern HIV/AIDS skeptics, Peter Duesberg and Robert Root-Bernstein, who do not believe that HIV has a central role in AIDS.
		At the other end of the skeptic spectrum are hybrid arguments raised by Robert Root-Bernstein, an associate professor of physiology, winner of a MacArthur "genius" award, and author of Rethinking AIDS [...], the most carefully- documented work to yet assail the prevailing medical views on HIV and AIDS (see page references).
		Root-Bernstein is less radical than Duesberg, arguing for a somewhat less central role for HIV in AIDS than is generally given it, but still allowing for the virus to have some part in the etiology of the disease.

		More seriously the American edition contains two striking editorial slips that must be mentioned.
		A footnote regarding Brownian motion claims it was "first noted in print in 1928 by botanist Robert Brown, and explained by Albert Einstein in a 1905 paper." In fact, Robert Brown's discovery dates from the 1820s (which, chronologically speaking, also makes more sense than the passage otherwise suggests).
		More egregious is the misspelling of James Joyce's work (in a transcription of an interview made under the auspices of the American Association for the Advancement of Science) as Finnegan's Wake (there is no apostrophe in the actual title).
