As far as the Philosophy of Science is concerned, the links are related to the epistemological basis of anthroposophy as the basis of Waldorf education, and the relation of anthroposophy to the natural sciences as they have developed during the last centuries. 

The links on Goetheanism relate to books, articles and research institutes working out of or in the spirit of a Goetheanistic approach to man and nature. It constitutes a complementary approach to that dominating in the natural sciences today and in general is integrated as such in the curriculum in Waldorf schools. 

The links on Waldorf education and anthroposophy point to sites on both subjects and on the relation between them. Though the anthroposophical understanding of man and nature constitutes the basis Waldorf education, it is not as such taught at Waldorf schools.
