This new item comes from the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), which has placed the 2000 edition of its Science and Technology Policy Yearbook online in .pdf format. This edition of the Yearbook focuses on globalization and the knowledge economy. As in the past, most of the Yearbook is derived from the proceedings of the Annual AAAS Colloquium on Science and Technology Policy, with additional content from the 1999 AAAS Annual Meeting, a special AAAS-sponsored meeting at MIT, and several significant reports issued during the year.
