[REVIEW]Harold Issadore Sharlin,Stephen G. Brush,Harold L. Burstyn,Sandra Herbert,Michael S. Mahoney &Nathan Sivin -1975 -Annals of Science 32 (1):55-70.detailsThe history of science and technology has been a scholarly discipline with little attention given to the special needs of undergraduate teaching. What needs to be done to transform a discipline to an undergraduate subject? Suggestions include using the relation between science and technology as well as the role of interpreters in formulation of the popular world view. Relations with science and history departments are considered. Curriculum materials are surveyed with some recommendations for correcting deficiencies.
