We introduce a set of three essays devoted to Humanistic Science Education, an approach to science teaching and learning built around the premise that science is a human endeavor, with its own culture, values, knowledge, and practices. This portrayal of science emphasizes the need to contextualize science for students and to assist them in connecting science with other aspects of their lives. We describe how Humanistic Science Education is a promising approach given this particularly difficult juncture in our history and provide some timely examples of recent work that embodies this approach
