Our goal is not to antagonize, cajole, inveigle, or nag. |- |align="left" | ''Science Besieged'' tells stories that show how the threads of science and technology are woven into the fabric of society. As an antidote to anti-scientism we invite readers to explore and discover the value and excitement of science for themselves. |- |align="left" | --''From [[Science Besieged Project:About]]'' |} <br> {|width="90%" align="center" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="border: 0px solid #ffffff; padding: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; background-color: #ffffff;" | valign="top" width="43%" | {|width="95%" align="left" cellpadding="10" style="border: 1px solid #004727; padding: 0px; margin-bottom: 3px; background-color: #ffffdf;" ! align="center" | Finding Articles |- | * [[:Category:Book Notes|Book Notes]] offers ratings and readers' notes about books on science and society that Ars Associates have been reading * [[Surveying the American West]] describes the role of geography in the Westward expansion of America in the late 1800's * [[Legislating the Value of Pi]] is a Time-Capsule curiosity from the late 19th century * [[Evolution and the Vatican]] examines papal teachings over the last 130 years The [[Outline | Project Outline]] is a handy summary of available and planned articles.
