Phillips Salman, from September 2006 to September 2007. Dr Salman was associate professor of English at Cleveland State University from 1974 to 1999, and he was granted emeritus status is 2002. He is a member of The Renaissance Society of America, the History of Science Society, The British Society for the History of Philosophy and the American Society of Aesthetics. His doctorate and masters in English literature are from Columbia University and his undergraduate degree is from Harvard. In partnership with the poet, John Heath-Stubbs, he wrote an intellectually challenging essay about the relationship of poetry and science which was published as an introduction to an anthology of "Poems of Science", published in 1984 by Penguin. The front cover detail of the anthology invites questions about the framework within which we see scientific inquiry. Dr Salman advised Science, People & Politics for one year from September 2006 to September 2007.
