Great expectations

摘要

One sign of enhanced public understanding of Darwin and the nature of science, will be quicker resolution of continuously re-emerging controversies between the scientifically literate and creation scientists'. Other signs will include enhancements of public debate about scientific discovery, about funding for science, and policies that result from scientific discovery. There will be fewer vapid press claims about the implications of scientific studies, and an enhanced awareness pf the roles of evidence and the control of bias in decision-making of all kinds.
