A Bouquet of Science
Sometime in I was asked to be a judge for the National Book Awards for the category “The Sciences.” I was not particularly enthusiastic about accepting what seemed like a potentially tedious task but Carl Sagan was another judge and I thought it might be interesting to meet him. The third judge was the ecologist Garrett Hardin. We were summoned to meet in a New York midtown building and when I got there I was taken to a room where the books that had been submitted by their publishers were on display. There were dozens and dozens all piled up in heaps on tables. I thought that if their authors could see this, they would head for the nearest bar. I had a bit of an advantage over my fellow judges because at the time I was essentially doing all the reviewing of science books for The New Yorker. I had a shelf in the book room at the magazine and a couple of times a week I would take several home.
So, many of the books that were piled up were familiar

Late Pliocene to recent depositional processes on the Sabrina Coast (East Antarctica): the diatom contribution
The studied stratigraphic sequences are composed of distal muddy sub-ice-shelf/seasonal open-ocean sediments on the continental rise. Their location, on a ridge, exposes the sediment to density currents and overflows, as well as barotropic currents and intermittent processes, linked to climate (Rebesco et al., ; Smith et al., ). The multiproxy sediment analyses, coupled with the seismostratigraphic record, have allowed us to reconstruct the paleoenvironmental evolution of the study site since the late Pliocene (Fig. 13). Magnetostratigraphy and radiocarbon data (Table 3) from the PC03 core indikera a discontinuous sedimentation rate with some main slide events like hiatus 1 (PC03 H1), possibly reflecting an EAIS melting phase; hiatus 3 (H3), comprising the cooling event at – Ma; and hiatus 4 (H4), corresponding to the Matuyama–Bruhnes reversal involving a stratigraphic seq
