This is one of the most exciting times in the history of science," New York Times -bestselling author Sam Kean proclaims in his introduction to The Best American Science and Nature Writing 2018 . "Things aren''t perfect by any means. But there are more scientists making more discoveries in more places about more things than ever before." The twenty-six pieces assembled here chart the full spectrum of those discoveries.
