Dear All
Some months ago I posted a message asking for people's thoughts about the state of science communication in the UK. I had been asked to write a short piece for the new journal: International Journal of Science Education, Part B: Communication and Public Engagement. Several list members responded with some very thoughtful and helpful comments, for which many thanks.
The first edition is now available and because Routledge have a 'Free for All' scheme, the content is available to everyone until the end of April. The circular below has more information. We encourage a range of submissions as the editors, John Gilbert and Sue Stocklmayer explain in their editorial.
