During the Cold War, scientific discoveries were adapted and critiqued in many different forms of media across a divided Europe. Now, more than 30 years since the end of the Cold War, Science on Screen and Paper explores the intersections between scientific research and media by drawing from media history, film studies, and the history of science. From public relations material to educational and science films, from children's magazines to television broadcasts, the contributions in this collected volume seek to embrace medial differences and focus on intersectional themes and strategies for the representation of science.

Almost from their very inception, European cinemas frequently undertook collaborative ventures in an attempt to cultivate a transnational "Film-Europe." Despite the significant obstacles that the East/West divide presented to achieving that ideal, in the postwar era it was DEFA where these practices persisted.
