Wilson will "describe how science is done," using examples from his current research--such as his studies of chemical communications among social insects--and relating them to human social organization. In this way, Wilson says he intends "to orient evolutionary biology against the background of social sciences." Before the Core, Wilson points out, a Natural Science Gen Ed course would "present a segment of knowledge and leave it up to the students to figure out how it might apply to broader social issues, if it indeed applied at all."

...performance could be traced to Jean Vigo, whose Zero for Conduct (1933), made with no professional kids, is still the screen's greatest poem to youthful anarchy. The 400 Blows exerted a strong influence on George Roy Hill, who in 1964 made The World of Henry Orient, which is about two lovesick Manhattan schoolgirls.

In The Price of Defense, they have made sense of the senseless--they have brought order to the chaos of American foreign and military policy. The present system rests on the assumption that more military spending means a safer nation, and it fails to subordinate military spending to the government's foreign policy goals. The system...
