Science in Context is an international journal edited at The Cohn Institute for the History and Philosophy of Science and Ideas, Tel Aviv University, and published by Cambridge University Press. Science in Context is devoted to the study of the sciences from the points of view of comparative epistemology and historical sociology of scientific knowledge. The journal is committed to an interdisciplinary approach to the study of science and its cultural development - it does not segregate considerations drawn from history, philosophy and sociology. Controversies within scientific knowledge and debates about methodology are presented in their contexts.

Established in 1987 by Yehuda Elkana, Robert Cohen (Boston University) and Simon Schaeffer (University of Cambridge) the journal was edited since its inception and until 1999 by Gideon Freudenthal, and is published by Cambridge University Press. The journal publishes outstanding contributions by well-established as well as by younger scholars all over the world, based exclusively on the highest standards of scholarship. Nowadays, the journal is widely acknowledged as one of the leading publications in the field. Its international character and its academic quality are enhanced by the backing provided by an International Editorial Board of leading scholars in the field, working in a variety of institutions, not only in the USA and Western Europe, but also in Russia, Morocco, China and Argentina.

Prof. Leo Corry, Cohn Institute, Tel-Aviv University;
