Reviews
An essential read for all science educators and researchers in order to develop an authentic understanding on the subject of ethics in science. This book by Amanda McCrory and Michael J. Reiss is a masterpiece that addresses the inclusion of ethics in science in both formal & informal settings which in itself speaks for its far-reaching impact. * Astha Saxena, Assistant Professor, Azim Premji University, India * This book should be required reading for anyone who is preparing to teach science. Although science is said to seek objective knowledge, the practice of science is, and always has been, value-informed. A science education that excludes ethical considerations ignores how science is a human activity. * Keith Taber, Emeritus Professor of Science Education, University of Cambridge, UK * A well-researched and well-argued brief for the importance of including ethics in science education, accompanied by thoughtful and informed suggestions for doing so. Theirs is a ground-breaking contribution. * Glenn Branch, Deputy Director, National Center for Science Education, USA *
