Book Description
Cromer (physics, Northeastern U.) exposes the chasm that separates scientists from science educators. He argues that Constructivism makes students slaves of their own subjective opinions, and offers a defense of the knowability of the world, both as an objective reality and as a finite landscape of discovery. He also presents practical suggestions on developing curricula that advance students' understanding in an orderly manner, and shows how physical science offers a new direction for reforming the social sciences.
