Why Is Roger H. Stuewer Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Roger Harry Stuewer was an American historian of physics. Education and career Stuewer was born in Shawano, Wisconsin on September 12, 1934. Stuewer received from the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 1958 a B.S. in physics education, in 1964 an M.S. in physics, and in 1968 a Ph.D. in the history of science and physics. In the 1958–1959 academic year, he taught high school physics and mathematics in Germantown, Wisconsin. From 1960 to 1962 he was an instructor in physics at Heidelberg College in Tiffin, Ohio. At the University of Minnesota, he was an assistant professor from 1967 to 1970 and an associate professor in 1970–1971. For the academic year 1971–1972 he was an associate professor in the history of science at Boston University. At the University of Minnesota, Stuewer was an associate professor from 1972–1974 and a full professor from 1974 until his retirement as professor emeritus in 2000. He was a visiting professor at the universities of Munich , Vienna , Graz , and Amsterdam . He was a co-founder of the journal Physics in Perspective and was its co-editor-in-chief from 1997 to 2013.
