Here and Now
Presenting contemporary science and technology provides science museums and science centres with some of their greatest challenges. This book explores questions central to the thinking of every museum and science centre attempting to meet such challenges: What are the implications of the information technology revolution? How can objects be more effectively displayed? And what are the key issues involved in developing exhibitions and events that address contemporary material?
Inside the Science Museum
This lavishly illustrated book provides a unique insight into the inventions, images, discoveries, products and ephemera that make up the vast collections of the Science Museum. It vividly demonstrates the variety and often sheer beauty of the objects; it also tells some of the stories behind them. Together, the text and images chart a remarkable historical phenomenon -- the emergence of the first industrial society. The book is divided into four sections: 'Industry and Technology' which features the tools, machines and engines that have dramatically changed Western lives. 'Science' which showcases the work of some of the world's greatest scientists, and features the ever-changing worlds of genetic and computing. 'Society' which shows how technology has had a huge impact on medicine, agriculture, conditions in the workplace and home, and on our scope for leisure. Finally, 'Museum' goes behind the scenes at the Science Museum, briefly outlines its history and discusses the vision behind the Wellcome Wing.
Our Biggest Experiment
Traversing science, politics, and technology, Our Biggest Experiment shines a spotlight on the little-known scientists who sounded the alarm to reveal the history behind the defining story of our age: the climate crisis. Our understanding of the Earth's fluctuating environment is an extraordinary story of human perception and scientific endeavor. It also began much earlier than we might think. In Our Biggest Experiment, Alice Bell takes us back to climate change science's earliest steps in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, through the point when concern started to rise in the 1950s and right up to today, where the “debate” is over and the world is finally starting to face up to th...

The Power of Play in Higher Education
This book examines the increasing popularity of creativity and play in tertiary learning, and how it can be harnessed to enhance the student experience at university. While play is often misunderstood as something ‘trivial’ and associated with early years education, the editors and contributors argue that play contributes to social and human development and relations at a fundamental level. This volume invalidates the commonly held assumption that play is only for children, drawing together numerous case studies from higher education that demonstrate how researchers, students and managers can benefit from play as a means of liberating thought, overturning obstacles and discovering fresh approaches to persistent challenges. This diverse and wide-ranging edited collection unites play theory and practice to address the gulf in research on this fascinating topic. It will be of interest and value to educators, students and scholars of play and creativity, as well as practitioners and academic leaders looking to incorporate play into the curriculum.
