whoa, authors views and science!

Here's a great clip, well, I mean, a link to a 2 minute video on AuthorsViews about Diane Swanson, author of Nibbling on Einstein's Brain and A Crash of Rhinos, A Party of Jays. I really like the part where she talks about how she marvels at the intriguing real characters that nature creates, and that's part of why she loves writing nonfiction books about the natural world.

Also, nonscientifically, I strongly recommend Allan Stratton's video about Chanda's Secrets, which is about the AIDS epidemic in Africa. Well actually it's about family and cultural taboos and love and integrity, and also AIDS.
