"As the devastating impacts of Japan’s earthquake and tsunami continue to unfold and concern over the Fukushima nuclear power plant grows, communication between scientists and the media has never been more vital. Fourteen years ago, journalist Jim Hartz and
physicist Rick Chappell warned in their book Worlds Apart: How the Distance Between Science and Journalism Threatens America's Future that people are dangerously unenlightened about science’s role in many aspects of life and society, in part because of the
inability of scientists and journalists to understand each other."
