Until 2020, citizen science—collaborative research between scientists and everyday people—was a distant curiosity in Russia, more dream than reality. That vision became tangible with the "People of Science" project, which launched citizen science into the pages of Forbes and into the Decade of Science and Technology program in the Russian Federation. Now, Russia has a community of citizen science enthusiasts: scientists and volunteers, theorists and practitioners, researchers and educators. It is this community that has created this book.
Here is the experience of a two-year hyper-jump, with movement forward and pauses, overcoming obstacles, and dozens of human stories. Researchers and practitioners aim to convince you that doing science as an ordinary person is possible, interesting, and beneficial for mind and body. For a scientist, involving a citizen is not a headache or a source of unreliable results, but rather new opportunities and horizons. Welcome!
