The Yearbook addresses the overriding question: what are the effects of the 'opening up' of science to the media? Theoretical considerations and a host of empirical studies covering different configurations provide an in-depth analysis of the sciences' media connection and its repercussions on science itself. They help to form a sound judgement on this recent development. | The Sciences' Media Connection -Public Communication and its Repercussions by Simone Rödder, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
