July Letters to Discover Magazine: Author Information

From Discover Magazine, July 2005 Issue
The letters published in July's issue were all either to praise or to criticize Alan Burdick's article in the May issue, "The Truth About Invasive Species". I have to assume that this focus was because most of the letters received by the magazine were about this controversial subject. Interestingly, two of the letters were attributed to multiple authors, and two individuals in each group have also coauthored books on invasive species.
