The sole living inhabitant of the Island of Doubt is James Hrynyshyn, a science journalist based in the southeast corner of western North Carolina (the "sea of certainty"). He has no evidence to support the tales that the island is also haunted by the spirits of Charles Darwin and Isaac Asimov, among others. He is an independent-minded journalist specializing in science, ecology and, whenever possible, marine issues. He has a degree in marine biology, another in journalism, and experience working on the Atlantic, Pacific and Arctic coasts.

What you are reading is an experiment of sorts, a web publication that will attempt to be, well different, creative, charming and yet informative. Were hoping to provide an online (and future print) platform that will accept all types of scientific writing. This will include those that plough through material in a journalistic or review style, or those that skip daintily, poignantly, humorously, or even angrily into creative writing. I suppose our own little holy grail would be to present an assortment of well written science literature in all of its possible connotations.

Your source for news and commentary on science, politics, and the exciting areas where these dynamic fields clash. Recognizing science as a path toward understanding nature, distinct from corporate and other applications, The Scientific Activist opens up a new dialogue on the proper role of science in an ever changing society. The truth isnt always black or white, but an informed public is an empowered one, so lets get the ball rolling.
