Ringrazio Kevin Knight che mi ha segnalato l'articolo del WALL STREET JOURNAL.

INGLESE
NEW HORIZONS OF SCIENCE. ETHICS OF SCIENCE OPEN
The Wall Street Journal in an article in the October 29, 2011, signed by Michael Nielsen, has opened an important window on new horizons of science in the network.
 
The experience attempted in January 2009 by Tim Gowers, a mathematician at Cambridge University has had an immediate positive results. The problems identified in the Network Blog found the solution with the help of other mathematicians in no time. Science is "open" has new solutions with the help of the people on the network. They open new horizons of science and old issues of ethics. The data in the hands of all cast doubt on the use. The scientific community debates the validity of these new tools. It seeks to overthrow the idea that it is a diversion from "real" job when scientists conduct quality research in the light of the sun. Interpreting the current debate Nielsen says " The scientific community itself needs to have an energetic, ongoing conversation about the value of these new tools. We have to overthrow the idea that it's a diversion from "real" work when scientists conduct high-quality research in the open. Publicly funded science should be open science. Improving the way that science is done means speeding us along in curing cancer, solving the problem of climate change and launching humanity permanently into space. It means fundamental insights into the human condition, into how the universe works and what it's made of. It means discoveries not yet dreamt of. In the years ahead, we have an astonishing opportunity to reinvent discovery itself. But to do so, we must first choose to create a scientific culture that embraces the open sharing of knowledge".
new age coming?
