“This book discusses communication for committed climate change activists determined to promote activism. It assumes climate change is due to humans, is dangerous, is imminent, and is controllable. It also explores the idea that better communication will help solve the problem. … Summing Up: Recommended. All readers.” (T. N. Chase, Choice, Vol. 54 (11), July, 2017) “Priest has written an easy-to-read thought-provoking book, which can be used to introduce science communication to undergraduate and graduate students who will gain understanding of the debates and future direction of the field, as well as potential spaces for action. … For an engaged reader, however, research opportunities are easy to identify, and Priest even offers possible questions that, if explored and answered, will surely mark the path forward for science communication.” (José Castro-Sotomayor, Language & Ecology, ecolinguistics-association.org, 2017)
