Notes:
Alfred and Julia Hill Lecture, conference of the National Association of Science Writers, University of Tennessee, March 17, 1997. 8 pages., "If science was ever a thing apart, a special way of living and of seeing things, that time is past. Today, science is the vital principle of our civilization. To do science is critical, to defend it the kernel of political realism. To define it in words is to be, quite simply, a writer, working the historical mainstream of literature."
