The New Atlantis (Winter 2008)
The New Atlantis
A Journal of Technology and Society

The New Atlantis is an effort to clarify the nation's moral and political understanding of all areas of technology, with a special emphasis on bioethics. The quarterly journal is an attempt to make sense of the larger questions surrounding technology and human nature, and the practical questions of governing and regulating science -- especially where the moral stakes are high and the political divides are deep.

In the latest issue:

The Editors on John McCain and the Stem Cell Debate.
Yuval Levin on the past and future of the “party of science.”
O. Carter Snead on brain scans and the conflicted aspirations of neuroscience.
Matthew B. Crawford on the dangers of a mindless brain science.
Cheryl Miller on the lively and fractious community of “infertiles.”
Thomas W. Merrill reads Descartes’ Discourse on Method.
Jeremy Lott on suburbs, bomb shelters, and bottled water.
Christy Hall Robinson on celebrity patients as advocates.
James C. Capretta on why health care records are so low-tech.
Caitrin Nicol on predictions of robotic intimacy.
David Franz on the utopian origins of Dilbert's sorkspace.
George Mitchell on drugs in baseball.

       ... and much more!
