When I studied evolutionary biology in 10th grade, the science behind phrases like "survival of the fittest" became clear to me.
But in science, the phrase can mean data arranged with exquisite precision.
They culled 858 science-related phrases from 377 songs sung in Mandarin and three other Asian languages that were nominated for Golden Melody Awards (pictured)—Taiwan's equivalent of the Grammys between 1990 and 2012.
Quimby referred to this idea, in February 1863, as "Christian science," a phrase he used only once in writing.
Rather, this was a struggle to insert into the state science standards various phrases and code words that may seem innocuous or meaningless at first glance but could open the door to doubts about evolution.
That phrase "science versus art" could be an accurate summary of Mr. McCrory's work, too.
In one sense, the phrase "science advice" may already be redundant.
The phrase "science that upholds the common good" may seem innocuous.
And those looking for a moral will find one nicely phrased: "Science is unique among human ways of knowing because it is self-correcting," writes Levenson.
