THE phrase 鈥渟cience and nature writing鈥� doesn鈥檛 do justice to what鈥檚 inside this book: witty, daring and provocative prose about the often dramatic tensions between knowledge, reality and society. Exploring issues such as science and religion, computer hacking, stem cell research and the neuroscience of morality, these writers remind us that science writing is much more than data description. At its best it is the telling of an ongoing and very human drama that deeply concerns us all.
