...very expensive. Before 2001 the U.S. had five Level 4 labs; now there are 15 in operation or coming on line soon, including the planned $470 million National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility (NBAF), which will cover as much acreage as five Wal-Mart stores. On the short list of states in contention to host the NBAF is Mississippi, which has zero prior experience with such high-risk research.

The authors, chemists all, have enough of an outsider’s perspective on biology to strike an appropriate balance between providing useful technical vocabulary and dumping a list of Latin on the reader, and they do so without sacrificing their authoritative tone.The 27-page introduction leaves little to the imagination, providing a whirlwind overview of chemistry as well as fodder for the critics. While its writing is lucid and well-illustrated, a reader not intimately versed in (at least) Advanced...

...argued not only against the idea of meritocracy but against the very idea of rationality in politics. While there are certainly spheres of human existence that rationality cannot greatly improve and may actually harm, spirituality comes immediately to mind, I would think that politics is very high on the list of endeavors in which any reasonable person agrees that rationality is an absolute prerequisite. Ask the people of Darfur or Iraq whether they would prefer to enjoy the “apparent advantages” of reason-based governance or continue to reap the fruits of violent religious conflict...
