Contents Notes |
Don't be so cerebral -- Don't be so literal minded -- Don't be such a poor storyteller -- Don't be so unlikeable -- Be the voice of science! -- Appendix : Filmmaking for scientists -- Acknowledgements -- Notes -- Index. In Don't Be Such a Scientist, Randy Olson shares lessons of his transformation from tenured professor to Hollywood filmmaker, challenging the science world to toss out its stodgy past in favor of something more dymanic --and ultimately more human. In this second edition, Olson buils upon the radical approach of Don't Be Such a Scientist throught timely updates and new stories. In his signature candid style, Olson weighs in on recent events in the science community, celebrating the rise in grassroots activism while critiquing the scientific establishment. In an age of renewed attack on science, Don't Be Such a Scientist, Second Edition is a provocative guide to making your voice heard. |
