对科学的理解重要吗?传播科学涉及哪些问题?《公众科学》独特地汇集了公众对科学理解的广泛理论和实践。为了解决这些问题和其他问题,面对今天的技术社会,这本书审查了沟通科学的历史,从18世纪通过迈克尔法拉第和托马斯赫胥黎,并对今天。详细的当代案例研究提供了对科学的沟通和理解的见解。在《公共科学》一书中,社会学家和传播学研究者的观点与政治家的期望和教育家的希望交织在一起。公众在这里,科学也在这里,无论是理想化的还是现实世界的伪装。这本书的范围很广,主题也是如此。
Is an understanding of science important, and what are the issues involved in communicating it? Science in Public uniquely draws together the broad range of theory and practice of public understanding of science. In order to address these and other questions that face today's technological society, this book examines the history of communicating science from the eighteenth century through Michael Faraday and Thomas Huxley, and on to the present day. Detailed contemporary case studies offer insights into the communication and understanding of science. In Science in Public the ideas of sociologists and communications researchers rub shoulders with the expectations of politicians and the hopes of educators. The public is here, and so is science, in both their idealized and real-world guises. The book's scope is broad, as is the subject.
