This book is an historical narrative of academic appointments,
significant personal and collaborative research endeavours, and
important editorial and institutional engagements. For forty years
Michael Matthews has been a prominent international researcher,
author, editor and organiser in the field of 'History, Philosophy
and Science Teaching'. He has systematically brought his own
discipline training in science, psychology, philosophy of
education, and the history and philosophy of science, to bear upon
theoretical, curricular and pedagogical issues in science
education. The book includes accounts of philosophers who greatly
influenced his own thinking and who also were personal friends -
Wallis Suchting, Abner Shimony, Robert Cohen, Marx Wartofsky,
Israel Scheffler, Michael Martin and Mario Bunge. It advocates the
importance of clear writing and avoidance of faddism in both
philosophy and in education. It concludes with a proposal for
informed and enlightened science teacher education.
