    This course offers an introduction to the history of the sciences roughly between the times of Isaac Newton in the late seventeenth century and Albert Einstein in the early twentieth. The course attempts to place science in the framework of modern culture and especially in Western Society. Among the topics emphasized is the idea of the scientific method and methods of experimentation. Specific subjects will include the foundations of modern science including gravity, chemistry, energy, evolution and the emergence of particle physics. In addition to building an understanding of the emerging ideas, the course works to study the ways in which social values are interwoven with scientific judgements. The course materials argue that scientists are not dispassionate catalogers of phenomena, but members of a society whose values and assumptions inform, and interact with their work. This relationship is especially true as it pertains to the development of a secular culture and specialization within science. Intimately bound up with the emergence of a secular culture and scientific expertise is the changing interaction between science and religion. Student must have at least junior standing to register for this course.
