A personal, practical, and inspirational guide to written and oral
STEM communications for scientists and technical professionals. In
Sharing Our Science, scientist-turned-writing teacher Brandon Brown
offers an eminently useful guidebook for STEM practitioners looking to
communicate their technical work to either a technical or a broader
audience. Professionals are increasingly required to communicate their
work through blogs, podcasts, and newsletters and to submit to
traditional media. After seeing his colleagues struggle to find a
writing guide that tackled the unique challenges of writing and
speaking about scientific topics, Brown set out to write the
definitive handbook to assist STEM students, scientists, engineers,
and tech workers alike. In this practical and relevant book, Brown
uses his experience as a proven science communicator to cover three
levels of writing: fundamental craft considerations, such as narrative
tension, structure, sentences, and audience; unique scientific
considerations, such as conveying numbers and utilizing metaphors; and
finally, social considerations, such as public speaking and writing
inside and outside of silos. In place of a reference manual, Brown’s
engaging narrative guide clarifies the fundamental principles that
impact all scientific communication tasks, from white papers and slide
decks to Zoom meetings and emails. Sharing Our Science represents the
culmination of a lifetime of writing, research, and teaching that will
enrich scientists’ careers and illuminate the ways in which science
is done and conveyed to the world.
