Science writing poses specific challenges: Science writers must
engage their audiences while also explaining unfamiliar scientific
concepts and processes. Further, they must illuminate arcane
research methods while at the same time cope with scientific
ignorance and uncertainty. Stocking's volume not only tackles these
challenges, but also includes extraordinary breadth in story
selection, from prize-winning narratives, profiles and explanatory
pieces to accounts of scientific meetings and new discoveries,
Q&A's, traditional trend and issue stories, reviews, essays and
blog posts. These Times exemplars, together with Stocking's guide
to reading stories about science and technology, are perfect for
science writers who aspire to diversify and hone their reporting
and writing skills in a changing media climate. Holly Stocking is
an experienced science writer, award-winning teacher, and a fellow
of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. MORE
