Pawsitive FEEDBACK!

Hope my pet gets chosen for pet of the month... it would be very cool to have him be a pet pin up star in the 2009 Million Dollar PetPix Calendar. Great idea! - Anon

Editorial Review:

Product Description:


Together these twenty-one articles on a wide range of today's most leading topics in science, from Dennis Overbye, Jonathan Weiner, and Richard Preston, among others, represent the full spectrum of scientific inquiry, proving once again that "good science writing is evidently plentiful" (American Scientist).





Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Phenominal compilation
I was a bit skeptical getting a readers-digest type of a book.

However, this turned out to be a very impressive material. A compilation of best articles in science written in 2006, what could be better for a person who likes a good non-fiction read?

I think the editor did a fabulous job selecting a wide range of subjects.

I highly recommend this book and I myself am buying this series now yearly.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - science book
This is a great series. Don't miss any of it. Back order old issues... it's worth it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - really good
This is the first edition of this series that I have read. It's pretty good, although, this is more science reporting than science writing. There is a difference, but the articles were well researched and interesting. And they cover a wide variety of topics. Not as good as the Best American Science and Nature Writing, but a great layman's source for the world of science.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Yay for science!
Delivers what it promises; engaging informative scientific papers from the year. Good read! These books get better every year



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good essays, on average
The overall result is positive, some essays not that good, some nice, and a few nicer. By the end, it is worth to go through them and discover one by one.
