The Invention of Science: Why History of Science Matters for the
Classroom introduces readers to some of the developments that were
key for the emergence of Eurocentric science, the discipline we
call science. Using history this book explores how human groups and
individuals were key to the invention of the discipline of we call
science. All human groups have a need and desire to produce
systematic knowledge that supports their ongoing survival as a
community. This book examines how history can help us to understand
emergence of Eurocentric science from local forms of systematic
knowledge. Each chapter explores elements that were central to the
invention of science including beliefs of what was real and true,
forms of reasoning to be valued, and how the right knowledge should
be constructed and the role of language. But most importantly this
book presented these ideas in an accessible way with activities and
questions to help readers grapple with the ideas being presented.
Enjoy!
