Certainly going back to Sherlock Holmes we have a tradition of forensic science featured in detective stories.
Brian and I were both science students. You know science sort of math and physics side, you know.
Math and science were my favorite subjects besides theater.
Man, in the collective sense, is the hero of science. Man, in the collective sense, is the hero of Earth.
Science rests on reason and experiment, and can meet an opponent with calmness; but a belief is always sensitive.
The man of science, like the man of letters, is too apt to view mankind only in the abstract, selecting in his consideration only a single side of our complex and many-sided being.
We've made science experiments of ourselves and our children.
In the U.S. you have a system of lobbying and influence on our policy and law makers which is incredibly pronounced. The gas industry spent $250 million getting an exemption from our Safe Water Act. Every one of those dollars is toxic; a contaminant ...
As a journalist, you have to have multiple sources and verifiable science, and when you've done that and satisfied the most skeptical voice in your head, you have an obligation to ride through the streets - let people know what's going on.

Invented languages have often been created in tandem with entire invented universes, and most conlangers come to their craft by way of fantasy and science fiction.

I have always argued that newspapers should not have any civic purpose beyond telling readers what is happening... A reporter who doesn't quickly tell readers what they most want to know - the score - won't last long. Better he should teach political...
I take the view that we all have permission to be a little baffled by quantum information science and algorithmic information theory.
I really don't think of myself as a science writer.
I also assume that they are not simply the physical properties of things as now conceived by physical science. Instead, they are ecological, in the sense that they are properties of the environment relative to an animal.
When I began in 1960, individuality wasn't an accepted thing to look for; it was about species-specific behaviour. But animal behaviour is not hard science. There's room for intuition.
Drill everything, mine everything, roll back regulations, tweak the science, expedite permits. Sound familiar? The Republicans offer up more 19th-Century solutions to our 21st-Century energy problems.
And for mathematical science, he that doubts their certainty hath need of a dose of hellebore.
'Jurassic Park' has a lot of science in it - and a lot of it is wrong - but if it was all accurate, it would be a documentary.
Historical science is being left in the dust.
