Abstract
The book addresses scientific discovery in a novel and original way. It features a thorough reconstruction of the threads of thought that have been found in Darwin’s notebooks, and these are compared with scientific conversations among elementary school children. For philosophy of science, the book constitutes a proposal of studying the “context of discovery”, traditionally left apart in favour of the apparently more logical and systematic “context of justification”. For science education, the work brings forth some ideas for interpreting science teaching and learning with attention to the nature of science (NOS). Book structure: - “Rediscovering discovery” by Emanuele Serrelli - "The logic of scientific discovery in Darwin’s notebooks” by Telmo Pievani - “Notebooks and children: a comparison” by Marcello Sala
