Here is Edward Bear, coming downstairs now, bump, bump, bump, on the back of his head, behind Christopher Robin. It is, as far as he knows, the only way of coming downstairs, but sometimes he feels that there really is another way, if only he could stop bumping for a moment and think of it. And then he feels that...
The March issue, like all other issues of Science for the People, represents people as much as it does ideas or facts. Steve Hollis (Brother Hollis Writes from Kansas, p. 25) is just another one of us who finds that the pains, pleasures, experiences and concerns of his life are the common experience of us all. Our...
So history repeats itself. And following in the tradition of the past October editorial collective, we find that our numbers are few (diminished from seven to two in this case.)

The magazine Science for the People which succeeded SESPA Newsletter has now appeared for a full year. So this is perhaps a good time to describe the process by which the magazine is produced.

SESPA is defined by its activities. People who participate in the (mostly local) activities consider themselves members. Of course, there are people who through a variety of circumstances are not in a position to be active but who would like to maintain contact. They also consider themselves members. The magazine...
In August Vol.II, #2 of SESPA Newsletter became SCIENCE FOR THE PEOPLE "scheduled to be issued the second week of the even-numbered months." About 5000 copies have now been distributed and the response is most encouraging. In our mail are many statements of support and requests for additional copies. Money is...
