How does peer review benefit the scientific community?

Peer review benefits the scientific community in several ways. 1. It benefits the author by pointing out the flaws in the research and where it needs improvement. Reviewers often give comments on how to improve the paper and even how to present it. 2. It benefits other scientists by filtering scientific lierature. Since the best papers are published in the top peer reviewd journals, an average scientist can keep abreast of the most significant developments in science by reading only these journals. 3. The reviewrs themselves are also benefited in teh process as they get to read about many new developments, and this sometimes helps them in their own projects.

What is the importance of federalism to the constitution?

The delegates to the Constitutional Convention of the United States could not decide on the name for the type of government they created. As a result, they did not give it a name. An argument arose over whether or not to ratify the constitution. Then 85 anonymous papers called The Federalist Papers supported the Constitution. Previously, the term Federalism meant two totally independent nations joining together for one purpose but otherwise totally independent. The writers of The Federalist Papers took an old seldom used word and made it serve a new use. Thus the Constitution added a new meaning to the term Federalism. Europe is trying to add yet another meaning to the word.


What were the essays that were written to promote the ratification of the constitution?
