 PROJECTS
Seeking
submissions
Media guidebook for anthropologists and social scientists,
to be published by Left
Coast Press (Mitch Allen, publisher), towards
the end of 2007.
This
media guide will contain best practices, tips, and contributions
from both science media and anthropologists, which will help
bridge the gap between the two groups, and smooth communications.
As many of you know, I've been speaking and writing about
communicating anthropology to the public for a number of
years, and have given numerous sessions and workshops at
AAA, SfAA and other science meetings. I've held roundtables
for science writers and anthropologists, and am a member
of the National Association of Science Writers and AAA
member.
