ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.

Is there some company like Netflix that provides DVDs for science 
subjects at modest costs? I'm thinking of somewhat short topics like 
those one hour shows on the PBS, National Geo or Science channels, as 
opposed to complete series like Cosmos or Planet Earth. Maybe there's 
such a company that even copies Netflix in that one can sign up for a 
category, and they more or less send random selections every month or week.

The Teaching Company, Great Courses, offers a set of DVDs titled Science 
Wars (what scientist know and how they know it) on sale until April 6. 
Has anyone seen it and can comment on it? <www.teach12.com>
