This is hardly another field in education which is more important for a country's future than science education. Yet more and more students elect to concentrate on other fields to the exclusion of science for a variety of reasons such as: the perception of degree of difficulty, the actual degree of difficulty, the lack of perceived prestige and earnings associated with the field, the dearth of good and easy to use texts, and, the lack of society in comprehending the significance of science and creating attractive incentives for those who enter the field. This new book focuses on issues of primary significance in the field.
