Zusatztext 'Overall! the book offers a clear and helpful frame for conceptualizing a view of the professional science teacher as one who embraces the notion of recognizing personal agency and responsibility in both the construction of knowledge for science teaching and the construction of knowledge about science teaching.' - International Journal of Science Education Vol. 28!
