{"product_id":"the-best-american-science-and-nature-writing-9780618134786","title":"The Best American Science and Nature Writing","description":"Since its inception in 1915, the Best American series has become the premier annual showcase for the country's finest short fiction and nonfiction. For each volume, a series editor reads pieces from hundreds of periodicals, then selects between fifty and a hundred outstanding works. That selection is pared down to the twenty or so very best pieces by a guest editor who is widely recognized as a leading writer in his or her field. This unique system has helped make the Best American series the most respected -- and most popular -- of its kind. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe Best American Science and Nature Writing 2002, edited by Natalie Angier, is another eclectic, provocative collection (Entertainment Weekly). Malcolm Gladwell, Joy Williams, Barbara Ehrenreich, Burkhard Bilger, Dennis Overbye, and many more of the best and brightest writers on science and nature explore such topics as the rise and fall of Islamic science, disappearing cancers, and the meaning of mountain lions in the back yard.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Natalie Angier, Tim Folger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mariner Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.50w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780618134786\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/15\/2002 pg. 1185\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/15\/2002 pg. 369\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eDiscover\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2003 pg. 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eFolger, Tim:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTIM FOLGER is a contributing editor at \u003ci\u003eDiscover\u003c\/i\u003e and writes about science for several magazines.
