Integrated Learning,
By Dr. Joan E. Aitken "author of Interpersonal C... (Kansas City, MO United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Science in Colonial America (Science of the Past) (Paperback)
This book is in the Science of the Past series discusses Sir Francis Bacon and the Age of Reason. Of particular interest was the concept of democratic science, so that science in America was not dominated by a small group of people. The book teaches about apothecaries, folk medicine, epidemics and inoculations, naming animals of North America, the beginning of botany, the discovery of ancient animal bones, astronomy, Benjamin Franklin and electricity. The book talks about how the spirit of colonial America influenced science, which would make an excellent supplement to a unit on colonial America.
