I believe that it is of increasing importance for students to learn about the principal scientific ideas and innovations that have shaped our modern civilization.  Like me, you may find that the material is humbling.  We learn how much we do not know and how fragile and special is this Earthly environment in which we share our lives with so many other living things.
