In This Issue... Marking the Millennium
Starting with this issue and continuing through 2000, we will explore new, as well as some old, hopes and dangers as we begin the next millennium. Two series -- "The Century in Retrospect" and "A Millennium of Minds"-- will feature probing, sometimes provocative voices on what we may face in the years ahead.
