Queering Science Communication Summary

Queering Science Communication: Representations, Theory, and Practice by Lindy A. Orthia (The Australian National University)

A book on queer themes and science communication is timely, if not well overdue. LGBTIQA+ people have unique contributions to make and issues to meet through science communication. So, bringing queer and science communication together is an important step for queer protest, liberation, and visibility. This collection examines the place of queer people within science communication and asks what it means for the field to queer science communication practice, theory and research agendas. Written by leading names in the field, it offers concrete examples for academics, students and practitioners who strive to foster radical inclusivity and equity in science communication.

Queering Science Communication Reviews

"The book serves as a great example for not only integrating insights across the continuum of research, practice and teaching in science communication, but also for employing a critical Science and Technology Studies (STS) lens for reflecting on our fields assumptions, practices and historical frameworks." Journal of Science Communication
