Only in fairly recent years has History and Philosophy of Science
been recognized - though not always under that name - as a distinct
field of scholarly endeavour. Previously, in the Australasian
region as elsewhere, those few individuals working within this
broad area of inquiry found their base, both intellectually and
socially, where they could. In fact, the institutionali zation of
History and Philosophy of Science began comparatively early in
Australia. An initial lecturing appointment was made at the
University of Melbourne immediately after the Second World War, in
1946, and other appointments followed as the subject underwent an
expansion during the 1950s and '60s similar to that which took
place in other parts of the world. Today there are major
Departments at the University of Melbourne, the University of New
South Wales and the University of Wollongong, and smaller groups
active in many other parts of Australia, and in New Zealand."
