Résumé

In "Science & Education, " Thomas Henry Huxley passionately advocates for the integration of scientific inquiry into educational practices, emphasizing the importance of a curriculum grounded in empirical evidence and critical thinking. Written with clarity and precision, Huxley navigates the dichotomy between scientific knowledge and traditional education, advocating for a model that embraces a progressive approach to learning.
His work emerges from the context of the late 19th century-a time when the scientific method began to influence broader intellectual discourse, and Huxley's rhetoric eloquently reflects the tension between religious dogma and emerging empiricism. Huxley, often called "Darwin's Bulldog" for his vigorous defense of Darwinian evolution, was a prominent biologist and educator whose work shaped the foundations of modern science education.
His own struggle with Victorian educational norms and his commitment to instilling scientific literacy in society, especially for the young, underscored his motivations for writing this seminal text. His broad understanding of biology, coupled with his belief in rational thought and skepticism, informs every page of this work. "Science & Education" is essential reading for educators, scientists, and anyone invested in the cultivation of a scientifically literate society.
Huxley's insights remain strikingly relevant as they encourage readers to reconsider the role of education in fostering critical thinking and understanding of the natural world. This book not only reflects Huxley's vision but also challenges us to prioritize scientific education in an era where misinformation can proliferate.
