Note: In lieu of a column this month, I am squeezing in below Sources -- second in a series of information to help in your study of science and pseudoscience.

The National Academy of Sciences has reprinted its excellent 28-page color 8.5 x 11" booklet, Science and Creationism: A View from the National Academy of Sciences. The original was published in 1984 and has been out of print since then. The National Center for Science Education describes it as a "clear, concise summary of the issues," and says "it will be very useful to school boards or teachers tempted by the siren song of `scientific creationism.'"
You can order the book for $4 (includes shipping) from NAS Press, 2101 Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20418.
