"Science, Archaeology and Public Debate"

I want to point readers to a nice guest column by Gary M. Feinman, posted last week in Publishing Archaeology. Titled "Science, archaeology, and public debate," the column explores the relevance of archaeological research to broader currents in science and policy.

I also want to this audience my invitation for guest entries for "Publishing Archaeology." Drop me an email if you are interested.
