I did not love this book. Unfortunately, I just don't think it was meant for me. I am a PhD science student, and I thought this would be a good resource to guide me in writing, both professionally, and for the public. What this ends up actually being is a much more esoteric list of essays specifically for science journalist. The material is so specific that it doesn't work very well outside of the field. If you are a science writer, I think it will be a great resource. For the general reader or even a professional scientist, there are better resources worth reading.

Great collection of advice from some of the smartest voices in science writing. It's sure to be of help to people just starting out in the field, as well as to professors to the next generation of science writers.
