ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************
I recently learned that Richard Dawkins's five lectures on evolution
have become available here in the U.S. They were given in 1991 as the
Royal Institute Christmas lectures. The series is titled Growing Up in
the Universe, and is about evolution. The series deserves the high
praise it has gotten, and as timely as in 1991. If I'd know these were
available sooner, I might have worked on our museum presenting them in
some way. However, Darwin's birthday is Feb. 12th, so maybe we can get
something going by then. Others might want to consider them for that date.
The DVDs are available from The Skeptic Society <www.skeptic.com> and
the Richard Dawkins Foundation <www.RichardDawkins.net>. The price from
the society is about $25.00.
