New book on Citizen Science

                Dear colleagues and friends,

I am pleased to present a new book on the topic of Citizen Science. It is
available online here:
https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-030-58278-4

Vohland, K./ Land, A./ Ceccaroni, L./ Lemmens, R./ Perelló, J./ Ponti,
M./ Samson, R./ Wagenknecht, K. (Eds.), The Science of Citizen Science,
Springer.

This open access book discusses how the involvement of citizens into
scientific endeavors is expected to contribute to solve the big challenges
of our time, such as climate change and the loss of biodiversity, growing
inequalities within and between societies, and the sustainability turn. The
field of citizen science has been growing in recent decades. Many different
stakeholders from scientists to citizens and from policy makers to
environmental organisations have been involved in its practice. In
addition, many scientists also study citizen science as a research approach
and as a way for science and society to interact and collaborate. This book
provides a representation of the practices as well as scientific and
societal outcomes in different disciplines. It reflects the contribution of
citizen science to societal development, education, or innovation and
provides and overview of the field of actors as well as on tools and
guidelines. It serves as an introduction for anyone who wants to get
involved in and learn more about the science of citizen science.

All the best
katherin wagenknecht
