Edge - the third culture

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Edge[1] is an on-line magazine exploring interesting scientific and intellectual ideas.

Scientists and others are invited to contribute their thoughts in a manner readily accessible to non-specialist readers. In doing so, leading thinkers are able to communicate directly with each other and the public without the intervention of middlemen such as journalists and journal editors. Many areas of academic work are incorporated, including genetics, physics, mathematics, psychology, evolutionary biology, philosophy and computing technology. Past and present contributors include: Martin Rees, Craig Venter, V.S. Ramachandran, Paul Bloom, Jesse Bering, Matt Ridley, Marco Iacaboni, Paul Davies, Ernst Poeppel, Richard Dawkins, Daniel C. Dennett, Jared Diamond, Leonard Susskind, Brian Greene, Simon Baron-Cohen, Freeman Dyson, Steven Pinker and Dan Sperber.

It is published by the Edge Foundation.
