Holden, Constance – Science, 1985
The National Academy of Sciences suggests models for biomedical research which include a biology-wide information system with computerized database accessible from a multitude of dimensions. Links could help discover whether toxic chemicals have effects similar to hormones. Commonalities from molecules to ecosystems might restructure available…

Kandel, Eric R.; Schwartz, James H. – Science, 1982
Describes how a behavioral system in Aplysia (marine snail) can be used to examine mechanisms of several forms of learning at different levels of analysis: behavioral, cell-physiological, ultrastructural, and molecular. Focusing on short-term sensitization, suggests how molecular mechanisms can be extended to explain long-term memory and classical…

Bambach, Richard K. – Science, 1983
Six books written in response to creationist arguments are reviewed. Indicates that the books should be of great utility in educating students in the sciences and in presenting the case for science, as separate from religion, to the uncommitted public. (JN)
