Potomac Institute Press, a subsidiary of the Potomac Institute for Policy Studies, US, has launched a new online publication - Synesis: A Journal of Science, Technology, Ethics and Policy (www.synesisjournal.com). Prof. James Giordano, Chair of Academic Programs and Director of the Center for Neurotechnology Studies at the Potomac Institute for Policy Studies, will be the Editor-in-Chief of the journal.
Synesis will appear semi-annually and will seek to be a forum for critical thinking and for analysis of the science, ethics and policy needed for successful human endeavour in a wide range of fields. It will present original papers that address science, technology, ethics and policy – both singularly and in conjunction with one another. All papers are peer-reviewed. The journal welcomes submissions from those who seek to form intellectual bridges within and between disciplines.
The debut issue of Synesis, Winter/Spring 2010, is entitled ‘Toward a Green Economy: Science, Technology and Policy in Interaction,’ and is guest edited by Dr. James Tate, former Science Advisor to the Secretary of the US Department of the Interior and Director of the Potomac Institute's Center for Environmental Economics and Ethics.
