Unscientific America by Chris Mooney
Describes how the scientific community has failed to exploit its importance. This book shows why science is losing out to religious and commercial propagandists in the public sphere, and urges that science must begin to train an army of ambassadors who can translate its message and make it relevant to the media, to politicians, and to the public.
Chris Mooney, formerly an editor with The American Prospect and a Contributing Editor of Seed, is a journalist specializing in the conjunction between science and politics. Sheril Kirshenbaum is a marine biologist at Duke University's Nicholas Institute for Environmental Policy Solutions. Her research has been featured in numerous magazines and scientific journals. Sheril co-writes The Intersection blog with Chris Mooney for Scienceblogs.com.
