I'm so excited - finally, the newest collection of the best science blogging has arrived! In it are 50 of the best blogs about science that were written last year. My copy just arrived today, and I can't wait to dig in. Although the list of selected posts has been up for a while, I've decided to wait to read them until I could do so with the added joy of page-turning. So, anyhow, I'm going to go lock myself in my room and read. I suggest you hop over to Amazon and get your own, so you can do the same!
