[Fhsst-authors] Biology news

[Mark Horner]

Hi everyone

I have done an u-turn in "policy". For a while I said that we wouldn't 
start any other books until at least one was finished. I still think 
that the conservative approach is a good one but in the last 5 days 
we've had 6 new volunteers - 1 Chem, 2 Maths, 2 Biology and 1 Editor.

This brought the total number of parties interested in Biology to 5 and 
so I've tried to get things started. There is fhsst-bio mailing list 
with all 5 members subscribed. The really great news is, unlike our 
other books, we actually have 3 active teachers as volunteers :)

The first step is for them to agree on an outline and some guidelines. 
Then we can start recruiting further contributors.

I haven't had time to put any info up on the webpage about it yet but 
the volunteer form does have Biology as an option. It'll be a little 
while before we actually have a book to put on the webpage but I am very 
happy that the life sciences are now part of FHSST.

Cheers,

Mark
