The essays in this book aims to map the nature and extent of the societal impacts of Big Science and the mechanisms that generate such effects, as well as highlight the complex realities that can be used as guidelines to fund Big Science facilities, and how we can maximize their impact. As science itself has become a subject of study and debate beyond the scientific community, these collected essays aim to encourage a dialogue with relevant stakeholders (such as scientists, policymakers, research managers and industry) and highlight the complex role that science plays in today's society.
Key features
• A single reference volume comprising a multitude of perspectives on the socioeconomic impacts of Big Science.
• Our author list comprises globally renowned expert authors with a wealth of domain knowledge and direct experience of Big Science facilities.
• Coverage emphasises transferability of best practice/lessons learned from Big Science organisations. The aim is to inspire research managers as well as communications and outreach officers of other Big Science projects.
• The text is relevant for policy experts, employees of funding agencies and professional science communicators.
