The recent years have witnessed the reform of science education conducted in a wide and deep manner, science textbooks have an effect on science education and the cultivating of good image of scientists for junior middle school students. This paper analyzes the information and image of scientists in textbooks for junior middle school by adopting a quantitative and qualitative statistical analysis. Science textbooks use plentiful and multiple scientists’ materials where scientists are mostly from Europe, the number of modern scientists is larger than that of contemporary scientists, and there exist substantial differences in the gender ratio among scientists. Textbooks combine the objective external image of scientists and hard-working, serious and zealous internal image of scientists. When it involves writing textbooks, editors are advised to increase the proportion of female scientists, maintain a balanced ratio in the countries and times where they are living, as well as highlight their contributing spirit and endeavors.
