Scientists in popular culture, they argue, often embody the hopes and fears associated with real-life science, which continue to be prevalent in both fictional and non-fiction media. By becoming the \"human face\" of scientific insight and innovation, the scientist in popular culture plays a key role in encouraging public engagement with scientific ideas. Scholars of media studies, popular culture, and health communication will find this book particularly useful. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rebecca Janicker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1793633037\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781793633033\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lexington Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/14\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 252\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.69d","brand":"Rebecca Janicker","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44056509841663,"sku":"9781793633033","price":105.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_03176fe5-92a7-4697-af1c-951e11174764.jpg?v=1685041708","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-scientist-in-popular-culture-rebecca-janicker-9781793633033","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
