520 _aThis handbook reviews the extant literature on the most important issues in health and science journalism, with a focus on summarizing the relevant research and identifying key questions that are yet to be answered. It explores challenges and best practices in health and science reporting, formats and audiences, key topics such as climate change, pandemics and space science, and the ethics and political impacts of science and health journalist practice. With numerous international contributions, it provides a comprehensive overview of an emerging area of journalism studies and science communication. Kim Walsh-Childers is Professor of Journalism at University of Florida, USA. Her research focuses on news coverage of health issues and mass media effects on individual health beliefs and behaviors and on health policy development. Merryn McKinnon is an Associate Professor at the Centre for the Public Awareness of Science at the Australian National University. Merryn’s research draws from her background in science, science communication and journalism to explore the factors influencing relationships between science, media and publics.
