The article discusses the impact of scientist Edward Divers' various career experiences at the Royal College of Chemistry (RCC) in London, England, Queen's College Galway (QCG) in Ireland, and as a chemistry teacher at colleges in Tokyo, Japan on his career as a whole. The author argues that Galway's career and pedagogical ideas were strongly influenced by his time in Ireland and Japan, and highlights Galway as a case study of cross-national history of science education.
