Science communication is a rapidly expanding area and meaningful
engagement between scientists and the public requires effective
communication.
Designed to help the novice scientist get started with science
communication, this unique guide begins with a short history of
science communication before discussing the design and delivery of
an effective engagement event. Along with numerous case studies
written by highly regarded international contributors, the book
discusses how to approach face-to-face science communication and
engagement activities with the public while providing tips to avoid
potential pitfalls.
This book has been written for scientists at all stages of their
career, including undergraduates and postgraduates wishing to
engage with effective science communication for the first
time, or looking to develop their science communication
portfolio.
