The book is divided into four themes, looking at the individual, societal, and vocational and economic dimensions, with a final section on non-formal education. The authors typically combine relevant literature with their own research findings and experiences, often with an international perspective. In the main, the text is user friendly and maintains its accessibility throughout.

John Carroll reviews Relevant chemistry education and shares his thoughts on its potential to support teaching practice.
