Writing Around the World: A Guide To Writing Across Cultures
"As coordinator of the International Year of Astronomy 2009, I need to communicate, often through writing, with thousands of people from more than 130 nations. Obviously this is quite a challenge in terms of getting messages across the different cultural and languages constrains!Writing Around the Worldis the perfect field guide for this task and it has helped me to improve the communication flow within the IYA2009 network. McCool's book presents a solid, suggestive and significant contribution to what is now one of the most difficult arenas in science communication: writing across cultures." - Pedro Russo is the International Astronomical Union Coordinator for International Year of Astronomy 2009. He is also editor-in-chief of the Communicating Astronomy with the Public Journal.
