BEYOND THE HYPE: INSIDE SCIENCE'S BIGGEST MEDIA SCANDALS FROM CLIMATEGATE TO COVID
Εκδότης Elliott And Thompson , ISBN 9781783966929
Do you remember the 'Climategate' email leak? Or the 'Frankenfood'-style headlines about the perils of GM foods? What about the time the government sacked its own science advisor for challenging drug laws?
Beyond the Hype takes us behind the scenes of some of the most contentious stories in science over the past two decades. From animal research and genetically modified foods to hybrid embryos and a global pandemic, it demonstrates the vital importance of scientists talking to the media - and warns of the damage to public understanding when scientists are silenced on the defining issues of our times.
