The book contains a series of 40 articles written by
forward-thinking speakers who presented their findings at the
Communicating European Research 2005 event which was organised by
the European Commission in Brussels on 14-15 November 2005. This
event was attended by well over 2,100 participants. The contents of
this book clearly illustrate that a highly important element of
research projects funded by the European Union is communication.
Authors include scientists, journalists and communication
professionals. The book covers the main aspects of science and
technology communication today and addresses topical questions such
as: Is science journalism necessary at all? Should communication
become one of the basic skills of scientists, as compulsory as
thinking, testing and experimenting? Should our schools of the
future put scientific literacy at the top of the science
curriculum? Do we need science critics? etc.]
