The next wave of science writing is here. Editor Max Brockman has talent-spotted        19 young scientists, working on leading-edge research across a wide range of fields.          Nearly half of them are women, and all of them are great communicators: their        passion and excitement makes this collection a wonderfully invigorating read.We hear        from an astrobiologist at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena about the        possibilities for life elsewhere in the solar system (and the universe); from the        director of Yale's Comparative Cognition Laboratory about why we keep making the        same mistakes; from a Cambridge lab about DNA synthesis; from the Tanzanian savannah        about what lies behind attractiveness; we hear about how to breed plants to        withstand disease, about ways to extract significance from the Interne's        enormousdatasets, about oceanography, neuroscience, microbiology, and evolutionary        psychology.
