Dr. Shear has learned that “Harvestmen,” a cover article he published in the November-December 2009 issue of American Scientist, will be translated and published in two European science magazines, Spektrum der Wissenschaft in Germany, and Pour la Science in France.  Both magazines are popular science publications like our Scientific American.

Several years ago, Pour la Science also translated and published an article by Dr. Shear on the origins of terrestrial ecosystems.

An electronic copy of the original article is available on request from Dr. Shear.
