About

Asterisk is a quarterly journal of clear writing and clear thinking about things that matter.

Probabilistic. We can't be absolutely sure of anything – especially the world’s hardest and most complicated problems. It’s our job to wade through conflicting evidence and limited data, do the best we can to find the truth, and be honest about the uncertainty that remains.

Transparent. We care less about telling our readers what we think than showing them why we think it.
