Who are the best science writers ever?

Heavier on scientists than bona-fide writers, this list features names like Carl Sagan, Richard Feynman, Stephen Jay Gould, E.O. Wilson, and Oliver Sacks. The methodology is undefined and the credentials of the web site that published the list, OnlineCollege.org, are equally murky. But at least a couple of NASW members received mentions, and the inclusion of some names you might not expect — Isaac Newton? Galileo? — make for an entertaining read.
