Sinossi

Are you wishing you knew how to better communicate science, without having to read several hundred academic papers and books on the topic? Luckily Dr Craig Cormick has done this for you!
 
This highly readable and entertaining book distils best practice research on science communication into accessible chapters, supported by case studies and examples. With practical advice on everything from messages and metaphors to metrics and ethics, you will learn what the public think about science and why, and how to shape scientific research into a story that will influence beliefs, behaviours and policies.

    Wernher von Braun ( March 23, 1912 – June 16, 1977) was a German aerospace engineer and space architect. He was the leading figure in the development of rocket technology in Nazi Germany and a pioneer of space technology and science in the United States. 
    After World War II, von Braun was secretly moved to the US, along with roughly 1,600 other German scientists, engineers, and technicians, as part of Operation Paperclip. He worked for the United States Army on an intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM) program, and he developed the rockets that launched the United States' first space satellite Explorer 1. 
    He served as director of the Marshall Space Flight Center and as the chief architect of the Saturn V super heavy-lift launch vehicle that propelled the Apollo spacecraft to the Moon. In 1955, von Braun became a naturalized citizen of the United States. In 1975, von Braun received the National Medal of Science. This recording is from Dr. Von Braun's speech at the 1st Annual SOLE Symposium, September 13, 1966, in Huntsville Alabama.

    "Essays in Medical Sociology" is a collection of writings by Elizabeth Blackwell, the first female physician in the United States. The book covers a wide range of topics related to medical sociology, including the social determinants of health, medical education, women in medicine, gender and health, healthcare systems, medical ethics, public health, healthcare policy, medical practice, and the medical profession. 
     
    In this book, Blackwell discusses the social and cultural factors that influence health and illness, and emphasizes the importance of understanding these factors in order to improve healthcare outcomes. She also examines the challenges faced by women in the medical profession, and advocates for greater equality and opportunities for women in healthcare. 
     
    Overall, "Essays in Medical Sociology" provides a thoughtful and insightful analysis of the complex relationship between society and health, and highlights the need for a more holistic and socially informed approach to healthcare.

    A scrutiny of how algorithm has been widely used in order to perform any task has been done here. The step-by-step solution to any problem is an algorithm.  
    The set of rules and steps which should be followed so that the task is performed smoothly, is called an algorithm. It is the guidelines presented/ listed in a systematic way which is required while performing the task. 
    The era of modernization where computer holds almost all the importance is also based on an algorithm. There are multiple problem-solving operations which require certain guidelines so that the goals are achieved. The languages of the computer which builds a relation between machine and humans work on these algorithms. No wonder the world knows what to do and how but the computer needs guidelines! 
    The instructions provided by the user makes it possible for the computer to work out the problem-solving statement. There have to be some standards of the algorithm that the device should understand. The algorithm is not only used in computers but it also holds great utilization in cooking and mathematics. 
    The algorithm can be in various ways but as for coding there are has to be certain specific coded terms. The algorithm should be simple so that it is easy to understand and can be followed. There are various areas where algorithms are used in mathematics. The big problems which need expert solutions need proper methodology. This method is provided by algorithms. It is not necessary that the algorithms should be short. It varies from problem to problem. The mathematics subject has always been a tough one. Many difficult problems need proper step-by-step explanation. The different answers to various problems can be efficiently explained by algorithms provided. The simpler specifications help to solve bigger problems as well. The algorithm contains the constrained set of instructions in understandable language. The more procedure-oriented problems appear more need of algorithm is required. The algorithm used in computers is different based on the type of problem. The algorithm can be of several types in computers, such as string operator type, recursive backtracking and divide and operator. Randomized operator algorithms are also of great use. There are various properties of algorithms such as they should be input and output specified. They should be definite and effective. The finiteness of algorithm should be maintained by the means of input and output specified. It means that the input should be given to the processor and then output should be received. The moment when a computer receives the input, the command is achieved and it starts its working to produce the output. The relation between the input and output should be maintained. The algorithm should be specific and if these properties are hindered, the system is malfunctioned. The command and coding require a brief introduction. The algorithm provided is that brief instruction which acts as the helping hand for the coder. 
    Not only in computers, but even in mathematics, the formula provided is kind of a helping hand for any problem. The algebraic problems are in need of some pre-instructions which ensure the absolute results.
