ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************
The Californa State Assembly recently approved legislation that would
regulate exhibitions that display actual human bodies. <http://
blog.orselli.net/2008/01/end-of-human-body-exhibitions.html>
Personally, I found the traveling Body Worlds exhibition fascinating,
if a little creepy. However, no matter what your feelings about the
particular content of certain exhibitions, should governments really
be determining whether a museum should present a particular
exhibition or not?
