The
Web evolved originally through the old Arpanet system as a way for the US
government and universities to communicate. Since the commercialization
of the web the amount of information has increased tenfold but much of it
is propaganda and advertising of some sort or another. In order to further the original
purpose of the web, and to flash a light in the darkness of ignorance I
have included links to various types of science bases web sites.

"Dinosaurs reigned
for more than 100 million years and died through no fault of their own;
Homo sapiens is nowhere near a million years old, and has limited prospects
entirely self-imposed, for extended geological longevity."
--Stephen Jay Gould

Of course there are thousands of
books out there worth recommending. Here are a few that I find interesting
and informative: |
Chief Marin: Leader, Rebel, and Legend
by Betty Goerke
my first Anthro. professor. She cites me in the book! I have ONE drawing of a large projectile point!
|
The Human Evolution Coloring Book
by Adrienne Zihlman (Author) Mostly focused on the physical parts of humans and other apes, not so much the behavior. |
|
David
Brin has written a science fiction short story book called Otherness,
there is an interesting essay called, "Science versus Magic," that
I recommend. |

The more you know, the more you
know you don't know.
For those of you who don't get it: The more
you learn, the more you realize there is so much more to
learn. :)
