New York: Basic Books, 2009. First Printing [Stated]. Hardcover. xiii, [1], 209, [1] pages. Notes. Index. Christopher Cole Mooney (born September 20, 1977) is an American journalist and author of four books including Unscientific America and The Republican War on Science. Mooney's writing focuses on subjects such as climate change denialism and creationism in public schools, and he has been described as "one of the few journalists in the country who specialize in the now dangerous intersection of science and politics." Chris Mooney is a Pulitzer Prize winning writer on climate change and the environment at The Washington Post, and was a lecturer at the Yale School of the Environment for the 2021-2022 academic year. He has been covering science and the environment for two decades. In the book Unscientific America, Mooney and co-author Sheril Kirshenbaum expressed the concern that some science communicators were pressing the view that one must make a choice between accepting science or accepting religion. Mooney defended his position in a number of publications and podcasts by citing that ongoing scientific studies continues to support the hypothesis that people integrate new information based on their pre-existing worldviews, and that failure to account for this fact will lead to continued failures in science communication. Sheril Kirshenbaum (born May 24, 1980) is an American science writer and scientist. She wrote The Science of Kissing. She also co-founded and led Science Debate, a nonprofit organization with a stated goal of restoring science to its rightful place in politics. More
