More than the message Getting to the Heart of Science Communication Faith Kearns Island Press, 2021. 280 pp.

Abstract

Building on such predecessors as The Craft of Science Writing and Escape from the Ivory Tower, in Getting to the Heart of Science Communication, Faith Kearns reminds readers that how a scientist presents his or her research can drastically affect how people outside of academia think, and especially how they feel, about a given topic. The book offers a view from the front lines of science communication, profiling practitioners who explain their journeys and share stories of relationship building and community engagement.
