A transdisciplinary journal
With 2.5 million scientific articles published per year, neither information, nor access to information is a limiting factor so much as critical analysis of scientific content. Emerging global and complexes issues such as health and the environment or climate change and lifestyles require approaches that transcend the boundaries between disciplines. The Veolia Environment Institute announces the launch of a transdisciplinary journal for the integration and dissemination of scientific knowledge relevant to the interface of environment and society.
S.A.P.I.EN.S seeks to provide readers with clear access to relevant advances in disciplines other than their own. The scientific community is the primary target audience but S.A.P.I.EN.S will be of interest to educators and policy makers.
