The utopian alternatives that writers imagine are affected by many variables, such as the historical circumstances in which they write, their gender and class background, and psychological factors. These variables in turn give rise to a bewildering assortment of imagined social structures: utopian society may be centralized and regimented, or anarchic and diverse; it may be religious or secular; there may be free love or strict control of sexuality; the family may occupy a central position or it may be abolished altogether.

Learning Science these days is much more about solving practical problems by doing investigations. At the same time, there is much less emphasis at the early stages on acquiring specialist knowledge than there used to be. This book sets out to help top primary and lower secondary pupils learn the skills of practical investigation, whilst minimising the teachers’ need to collect, prepare or purchase materials, a job which takes up more time and resources than most teachers can reasonably spare at present. The double-page ‘self-teaching’ units take one skill or topic at a time, and use only the kind of materials you could find in any classroom or home. Childrens’ immediate surroundings are made use of wherever possible.
