About the book

"Practising Science Communication in the Information Age is a collection of newly commissioned chapters by leading scholars and practitioners of science communication. It considers how scientists communicate with each other as part of their professional practice, critically evaluating how this forms the basis of the documenting of scientific knowledge, and investigating how open access publication and open review are influencing current practices. It also explores how science communication can play a crucial role when science is disputed, investigating the role of expertise in the formation of scientific controversy and consensus." "A companion volume, Investigating Science Communication in the Information Age, provides an ideal introduction to anyone wishing to study contemporary science communication."--Jacket.
