Summary

Fields looking at how scientific knowledge is built up have always had a place of their own in the intellectual landscape. Like scientific research, the history, philosophy and sociology of science all set out to make the world more rational. What scientists do in the heat of their research, with great enthusiasm, is no different from the subsequent work done by historians and philosophers. While their work is less intense, historians and philosophers have sufficient hindsight to allow them to see the reasons for the changes in science. It is through their increased rationality that the history, philosophy and sociology of science can help to educate scientists.
