Christiane Gerblinger investigates why expert advice can be rejected within government and how advisers' own language may contribute to that result. The study focuses on the presentation of knowledge, uncertainty and authority rather than treating unsuccessful advice simply as a failure by its recipients.
Two detailed cases examine advice concerning South Australia's blackout and renewable energy, and Australian intelligence assessments of Iraq's weapons of mass destruction. A comparison with advice that gained a hearing develops the discussion of communication and public interest. This complete 2022 monograph includes its framework, case analysis, bibliography and index.
