SUMMARY:Science: Carol Yoon: Naming Nature
DESCRIPTION: Bellingham biologist and journalist Carol Yoon calls her 
	new book\, Naming Nature\, "the story of the rise of a science\, the s
	cience of taxonomy or the classification of all life\," even as it ill
	uminates our urgent need to stay connected to the natural world by usi
	ng familiar\, rather than scientific\, names. From Linnaeus\, whose sy
	stem turned classification from a hobby to a science\, and Darwin\, wh
	o ended the idea of rigid species definitions\, to today's dream of na
	ming all of Earth's species and listing them online\, Yoon investigate
	s the poetic and deeply human need to label the natural world\, and wh
	at such a drive means to us today. Presented as part of Seattle Scienc
	e Lectures\, with Pacific Science Center and University Book Store.
