Book excerpt: Excerpt from French Readings In Science: Selections From Scientific And Technical Writers Arranged And Edited For The Use Of Students The selection of passages has been made chicﬂy from Chemical, Physical, Astronomical, Physiological, and Botanical treatioes. Some passages have been included, not for their modernity, but because they are connected with the great names of science. I have selected, too, some pieces of more popular interest, both for their vocabulary, and to relieve the sev erity. As most of the readers of this book are not beginners in French, 1 have not compiled a vocabulary, but most of the unusual and technical words will be found translated in the notes, where also will be found brief biographioel details of the authors of the extracts and of the celebrities mentioned therein. The date of the author should be membered when translating. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-12-24 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Classics of Modern Science (Copernicus to Pasteur) These movements of science have produced a Copious literature which has not enjoyed the same attention and reading as imaginative books, because, once the ideas are known and incorporated into the existing body of scientific knowledge, these scientific writings tend to acquire chieﬂy an historical interest. Yet they are monuments of the advance of civilization, and deserve a better fate. Many of them are still interesting to read as human documents because they illustrate how painfully and slowly man's exact knowledge of verifiable pheno mena has been accumulated. No one outside of the small company of highly trained scientists can read all of them through, yet most of them have sections which are as readable and as exciting as any mod ern novel. It is the purpose of this book to present to the young col lege student and to the general reader some of the more representative of these classics in the literature of science, bringing together in this convenient form at least some reminders of a vast field of reading where one may browse for a lifetime with interest and profit. If it be used in conjunction with a history of science it will readily supply a vivid sense of the movement of the mind of western civilization, in creasing in us a respect for the effort of our ancestors, and inspire us to encourage and to forward the work of contemporary scientists, and restrain us at least from hindering them in their efforts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As any reader of Jo Walton's Among Others might guess, Walton is both an inveterate reader of SF and fantasy, and a chronic re-reader of books. In 2008, then-new science-fiction mega-site Tor.com asked Walton to blog regularly about her re-reading—about all kinds of older fantasy and SF, ranging from acknowledged classics, to guilty pleasures, to forgotten oddities and gems. These posts have consistently been among the most popular features of Tor.com. Now this volumes presents a selection of the best of them, ranging from short essays to long reassessments of some of the field's most ambitious series. Among Walton's many subjects here are the Zones of Thought novels of Vernor Vinge; the question of what genre readers mean by "mainstream"; the underappreciated SF adventures of C. J. Cherryh; the field's many approaches to time travel; the masterful science fiction of Samuel R. Delany; Salman Rushdie's Midnight's Children; the early Hainish novels of Ursula K. Le Guin; and a Robert A. Heinlein novel you have most certainly never read. Over 130 essays in all, What Makes This Book So Great is an immensely readable, engaging collection of provocative, opinionated thoughts about past and present-day fantasy and science fiction, from one of our best writers. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Study of the Earth: Readings in Geological Science We have reason to believe that the earth has been undergoing a long and complex development, proceeding from a comparatively homogeneous and simple structure to one much more complex. Some five billion years ago, there was only a cloud of matter in the form of dust and gas. Later, an earth gradually evolved, and still later oceans, continents, and a primitive atmosphere formed. The first lifelike structure gradually developed, eons ago, from comparatively complex minerals. And a human animal appeared only an instant ago in geologic time, the improbable product of an incredibly long sequence of ancestral events which began with the appropriate-sized cloud at a certain distance from a star.-such are the broad but imperfectly understood outlines of the modern evolutionary View of the world, much of whose development has come through study of the earth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Common Science A collection of about 2000 questions asked by children forms the foundation on which this book is built. Rather than decide what it is that children ought to know, or what knowledge could best be fitted into some educational theory, an attempt was made to find out what children want to know. The obvious way to discover this was to let them ask questions. The questions collected were asked by several hundred children in the upper elementary grades, over a period of a year and a half. They were then sorted and classified according to the scientific principles needed in order to answer them. These principles constitute the skeleton of this course. The questions gave a very fair indication of the parts of science in which children are most interested. Physics, in simple, qualitative form, - not mathematical physics, of course, - comes first; astronomy next; chemistry, geology, and certain forms of physical geography (weather, volcanoes, earthquakes, etc.) come third; biology, with physiology and hygiene, is a dose fourth; and nature study, in the ordinary school sense of the term, comes in hardly at all. The chapter headings of this book might indicate that the course has to do with physics and chemistry only. This is because general physical and chemical principles form a unifying and inclusive matrix for the mass of applications. But the examples and descriptions throughout the book include physical geography and the life sciences. Descriptive astronomy and geology have, however, been omitted. These two subjects can be best grasped in a reading course and field trips, and they have been incorporated in separate books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Science of Common Life The value of an introduction to the scientific method in the school training of both sexes is now fully recognised. There is still some difference of opinion, however, as to how girls can best be taught to appreciate the value of experiment and deduction in the endeavour to understand the forces of Nature. Fortunately, we believe, the idea gains ground that there are no more suitable means than the ordinary operations and practices of the household to illustrate physical and chemical laws. Adopting the general trend of the recent syllabus of the Board of Education, though in no sense slavishly following its details, we have attempted to make students familiar with those broad principles of science without which the intelligent guidance of the domestic economy is impossible. Adhering to the belief that it is only by experiment that the truths presented can be made real to young minds, we have arranged a large number of suitable practical exercises the due performance of which will provide a sure foundation for the later explanations of the teacher. Unless the experiments are carried out by, or at least in the presence of, the pupil, much of the value of the course of study will be lost. Since, too, our experience shows that as many of the faculties of the pupil as possible should be brought into play, special attention has been paid to the illustrations throughout the book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Science Readers, Vol. 5 Following on the lines of its predecessor, this, the Fifth Book of the series, aims at still further expanding and developing the truths and principles taught in the earlier books. Comprehensive as the whole scheme is, the young reader will scarcely experience a difficulty in grasping any one subject, because the way has been carefully prepared beforehand, step by step. He sees at once that the various developments are the natural outcome of what has gone before. Each lesson from the companion book, the teacher's manual, is here reproduced, in an easy, chatty style, from the child's own standpoint. It is felt that these readings, used as a supplementary aid to the oral lessons, cannot fail to rivet the teaching on the mind. This volume, like the rest, has been profusely illustrated; but every picture is meant to be a real teaching aid, both in respect to the lessons on animal and plant life, and in the experimental lessons. It should be observed that some of the subjects do not lend themselves to pictorial illustration so readily as others. It is on this account, and to prevent one section of the book from becoming less attractive to the child than another, that the subjects have been intermingled in these reading lessons. Any book with the bulk of its illustrations in one or two sections, would be a fatal mistake, so far as the child was concerned. The teacher, who uses these readers to supplement the oral lessons, will find each subject, and every part of each subject, in its natural order, although the readings are interspersed one with another. This remark applies equally to each book of the series. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
