understanding collective behavior

Edge 240:
By Iain Couzin
/.../"In science even if I wrote a paper just by myself and I was the only author, I would still write 'we' in the paper. It is mostly a convention. But it is partly because you are always building upon what has come before. People would like to think that their work is brand new—it never is. Sometimes a different take on the same problem can be illuminating. I tend to interact with many people from different disciplines."/.../
