NCSE is pleased to announce that the latest issue of Reports of the National Center for Science Education is now available on-line. The issue — volume 33, number 3 — features Robert J. Raikow and Radmila Raikow's article "Transitional Forms" and Courtney St. John's "Climate Change Adaptation: Lessons from Unlikely Sources." And for his regular People and Places column, Randy Moore discusses the career of the fundamentalist cartoonist Jack T. Chick.
Plus a host of reviews of books on geology and paleontology and their history: Antonio Lazcano reviews David Deamer's First Life, Joseph G. Meert reviews Robert M. Hazen's The Story of Earth, Steven Newton reviews David R. Montgomery's The Rocks Don't Lie, Kevin Padian reviews David Sepkoski's Reading the Fossil Record, Alycia L. Stigall reviews Neil Shubin's The Universe Within, and Derek Turner reviews Brett Calcott and Kim Sterelny's collection The Major Transitions in Evolution Revisited.
All of these articles, features, and reviews are freely available in PDF form from http://reports.ncse.com. Members of NCSE will shortly be receiving in the mail the print supplement to Reports 33:3, which, in addition to summaries of the on-line material, contains news from the membership, a regular column in which NCSE staffers offer personal reports on what they've been doing to defend the teaching of evolution, a regular column interviewing NCSE's favorite people, and more besides.
