« DIY Home at Maker Faire | Main | Maker Faire Media » Denise Caruso: InterventionI've been leading a discussion with Denise Caruso about her new book, Intervention. We're talking in the Inkwell conference on the WELL. Denise has written off and (currently) on for the New York Times. We've known each other for years - she used to cover Silicon Valley tech stories, but in 2000 she founded the Hybrid Vigor Institute, which is "not-for-profit research organization and consultancy that is dedicated to interdisciplinary and collaborative problem solving." Intervention is about risk assessment, focusing especially on transgenics and DNA hacking. We've been talking quite about about who should be assessing risk, and who should have authority for decisions about science and technology. If you want to ask a question or make a comment, and you're not a member of the WELL, you can send to inkwell at well.com.
