Reminder to Submit Posts to the Diversity in Science Carnival for Hispanic Heritage Month

The Diversity in Science Blog Carnival was created by D.N. Lee of the Urban Science Adventures! blog when she issued a call and hosted the inaugural edition. The Diversity in Science Carnival #2 was hosted at Thus Spake Zuska under the theme Women Achievers in STEM – Past and Present.
The US National Hispanic Heritage Month [Wikipedia] runs from 15 Sep to 15 Oct every year. I issued a call for the next edition. I encourage you to write up a brief post on a Hispanic scientist (currently active or a historical contributor) in your own field and submit it to the carnival by October 9.

The Conduct of Science is a Social Science

I often lament* the fact that Sb doesn’t have a blog that focuses on the methods and practices of the social sciences. The reasons are many but I think my most general formulation is that the social sciences are the most scientific of the sciences and nobody seems to understand this.
