+ Clearly exposes the most frequent calumnies made against science
+ Shows how dogmatic religion, the financial interests of certain
industries, and opportunistic politicians sometime work in cohort
to undermine the public’s trust in science + Acknowledges that
science’s most mistaken critics are often skilled communicators,
and that effectively defending science requires an equally skilled
defense + Shows that while the “Science Wars“ of the 1990s have
abated, their effects on some of the methodologies in higher
education and the larger population continue + Examines three case
studies to clearly illustrate how reliable scientific knowledge is
secured: • Eratosthenes’ discovery of the circumference of the
earth • Louis Pasteur’s development of anthrax and rabies
vaccines • The rapid emergence of scientific consensus regarding
continental drift

This anthology contains selected papers from the 'Science as
Culture' conference held at Lake Como, and Pavia University Italy,
15-19 September 1999. The conference, attended by about 220
individuals from thirty countries, was a joint venture of the
International History, Philosophy and Science Teaching Group (its
fifth conference) and the History of Physics and Physics Teaching
Division of the European Physical Society (its eighth conference).
The magnificient Villa Olmo, on the lakeshore, provided a memorable
location for the presentors of the 160 papers and the audience that
discussed them. The conference was part of local celebrations of
the bicentenary of Alessandro Volta's creation of the battery in
1799. Volta was born in Como in 1745, and for forty years from 1778
he was professor of experimental physics at Pavia University. The
conference was fortunate to have had the generous financial support
of the Italian government's Volta Bicentenary Fund, Lombardy
region, Pavia University, Italian Research Council, and Kluwer
Academic Publishers. The papers included here, have or will be,
published in the journal Science & Education, the inaugural
volume (1992) of which was a landmark in the history of science
education publication, because it was the first journal in the
field devoted to contributions from historical, philosophical and
sociological scholarship. Clearly these 'foundational' disciplines
inform numerous theoretical, curricular and pedagogical debates in
science education. Contemporary Concerns The reseach promoted by
the International and European Groups, and by the journal, is
central to science education programmes in most areas of the world.
