Greenwald grew up in the sunny 1950s economy of Los Angeles, priding himself on his skills as a bodysurfer. When it came time for college, he enrolled at the University of California, Berkeley, planning to become a professor. By the time he completed his bachelor's degree in English, his growing interest in public affairs had spawned a new ambition to become a journalist. After taking a master's in journalism from Berkeley, Greenwald added a degree in public administration from the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard.

...these devices can freeze the gyrations of atoms and molecules with flashes of light. The lasers are being used to study everything from how sodium joins with other atoms to form salts to how plants convert sunlight into energy through the process of photosynthesis. Physicists from California's Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory reported that they used such a laser to take a "snapshot" of the chemical reaction that is the first step in visual perception. This reaction, triggered when light hits the retina of the eye, had never before been directly observed. And with good reason. The reaction was clocked...
Even for feminists who have no desire to go that far, the idea of a return, however marginal, to that notion of supernatural feminine power is alluring. Says Sandra Schneiders, a professor at the Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley: "There has been a stupendous upsurge in goddess research and the feminine divinity as an antecedent to the male god.
