Scientific Thought in Context is a comprehensive guide to the
history of science and serves as an authoritative bridge between
science content and social issues. This work supports both basic
and advanced curriculums in biology, chemistry, general physical
science, physics, and Earth science as well as history and the
social sciences. Topics include: The Big Bang Theory, Biochemsitry,
Cloning, Evolutionary Theory, Newtonian Physics, Microchip
Technologies, Pseudoscience and Popular Misconceptions among many
others. It offers 140 articles written by global experts as well as
more than 400 color photographs, illustrations, maps, and tables
that put the topics into context. The "Words to Know" section
within each entry helps students to read in context without being
overwhelmed by scientific terminology, while a chronology includes
many of the most significant events in the history of scientific
thought and advances of science.
