1      Eighth  IHPST Group International Conference, July 15-18 2005

 

The eighth conference of the International History, Philosophy and Science Teaching Group will be held in Leeds, England, July 15-18, 2005.  The conference theme is:

 

Teaching and Communicating Science: What the History, Philosophy and Sociology
of Science can Contribute

 

The conference is being held in conjunction with the British History of Science Society conference.  Sessions of both conferences will be available to participants, and there will be some shared social events.  Details about the conference, including travel, accommodation and registration, are at the web site:

 

http://www.ihpst2005.leeds.ac.uk/
