Writing About Science and Technology

I write extensively about science and technology for a variety of magazines. I write regularly for two magazines, New Scientist, and Laser Focus World, which are described below. I also write for a number of other magazines, and have contributed to several books, a few of which are listed below

New Scientist logo

New Scientist is a weekly science magazine published in London. I cover fields including paleontology, astronomy, geology, archaeology, space, technology, physics, and the environment. Mostly I write news stories, but I also write features. Check out the magazine's web site at http://www.newscientist.com . If you search for my name, you'll find that I've been very busy. That page also leads to other New Scientist sites devoted specifically to space and to technology. I enjoy writing for the magazine, and I hope you'll enjoy reading it.

Laser Focus World logo Laser Focus World

Laser Focus World is a monthly trade magazine serving the laser industry. I was managing editor of the magazine from 1974-1981, and am currently a contributing editor and the institutional memory. For the past several years I've been writing monthly features on photonic and fiber-optic research and technology. You can find some of my articles by searching for my name. Laser Focus World is part of the Advanced Technology group of Pennwell Publishing. For more information on the magazine, and on other publications including free electronic newsletters on the laser industry and medical lasers, try its web site at Laser Focus World
