This Week's Letters

The economics of "overwhelmingly large" telescopes are discussed in a letter from the director of the "European Southern Observatory." A large number of letters were received about a feature article, "The (political) science of salt." The director of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute found that the article "misrepresents both the process of public health policy-making and the data." A majority of the letters, however, were more positive. One reader wrote that the article "is the finest example of scientific journalism I have read."
