Today, a roundup.

The Washington Post and the Globe on Our Bodies Ourselves, the book behind a movement that changed the way we look at women’s health. Brought to you by The Boston Women’s Book Collective.

The book evolved from a pamphlet, “Women and Their Bodies,” written by 12 Boston-area women in 1970. The following year, it was renamed “Our Bodies, Ourselves,” and copies began selling like hot cakes. In 1972, the women officially became the Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, and the next year got a big-time publisher, Simon & Schuster

The Globe on holographic radar

In September, Cambridge Consultants released the results of Navy trials of its holographic radar system. Emitting a constant stream of radio waves in every direction at once, rather than a narrow beam that scans a piece of the sky in time with a rotating dish, the system gives observers a level of precision and detail far beyond that of conventional radar, said Gary Kemp, program director for the British company, which has its US headquarters in Cambridge.

Not Boston related, but fun. Vote for your favorite “brain awareness” video from those submitted to the Society for Neuroscience. Here’s one we like, but be warned. You might walk around all day singing “Cranial, cranial, craaaanial nerves.”
