Science Communication and Public Engagement Reading List

Behold my new #scicomm shelf!

With 13 years experience on the practical outreach side, I felt it's now time to learn more on the theory and best practice on science communication. I've compiled a reading list based on the physical and digital books I've collected. They cover a broad range from the history of communicating with the public to include more contemporary issues such as culture, society, identity, impact, ethics, philosophy, equality, equity, inclusion / exclusion, disability, media, EDI, racism, LGBTQIA+, religion, social science, sociology, literacy, fraud, museum and silence studies.
