Through detailed case studies of journalistic presentation of science news in regional newspapers in Kerala, the book demonstrates that mass media has a rather complex relationship with science in contemporary democracies. The social dynamics of their mutual resonance and its impact on public engagement with science is the key emphasis ofthe book.
