Questions of ethics and social responsibility have become an unavoidable part of science education. Teachers are being exposed to the difficult task of dealing with global values, as well as with those that are strongly dependent on culture and civilization. In this volume, many distinguished international contributors have attempted to stimulate an awareness of the ethical and social dimensions in science education by presenting selected problems and by providing information on the efforts being made to deal with ethical and social problems in the practice of science education.
