Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in the History and Method of Science, Vol. 2 The first volume of this series appeared in the autumn of 1917. The editor was unable to see it through the press owing to his absence from England on military duty. A Preface was accordingly provided by Sir William Osler, who, unhappily, has not lived to see the growing success that has attended the ideas he expressed there with so much force, and towards which he contributed life-long thought and effort. The volume was received with an approval that far surpassed the hopes of its editor and the issue was rapidly exhausted. In the present collection an endeavour has been made to avoid some defects inevitable in the earlier volume. The undue prominence given to mediaeval studies will be found in part corrected and care has been taken to give more space to the evolution of the mathematical and exact sciences, though the balance is yet far from being fully redressed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the History of Science The history of science has something to offer to the humblest intelligence. It is a means of impart ing a knowledge of scientific facts and principles to unschooled minds. At the same time it affords a simple method of school instruction. Those who understand a business or an institution best, as a contemporary writer on finance remarks, are those who have made it or grown up with it, and the next best thing is to know how it has grown up, and then watch or take part in its actual working. Generally speaking, we know best what we know in its origins. The history of science is an aid in scientific research. It places the student in the current of scientific thought, and gives him a clue to the purpose and necessity of the theories he is required to master. It presents science as the constant pursuit of truth rather than the formulation of truth long since re vealed; it shows science as progressive rather than fixed, dynamic rather than static, a growth to which each may contribute. It does not paralyze the self activity of youth by the record of an infallible past. It is only by teaching the sciences in their bistori cal development that the schools can be true to the two principles of modern education, that the sciences should occupy the foremost place in the curriculum and that the individual mind in its evolution should rehearse the history of civilization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henri Poincare is one of the most famous mathematicians and scientists of the last 500 years. He was a polymath who excelled in theoretical physics, engineering, philosophy, and mathematics. Science and Method is Poincare's treatment of the philosophy of the scientific method. "If the scientist had an infinity of time at his disposal," He states, "It would be sufficient to say to him, 'Look, and look carefully.'" Since the scientist does not operate in infinity however, the author has written this textbook to assist in determining how best to proceed with scientific studies. The book is divided into five chapters that are interrelated and depend fairly heavily on one another. Topics covered include the selection of facts, mathematical discovery, the relativity of space, mathematics and logic, mechanics and radium, an examination of the Milky Way, and finally, French geodesy. Poincare concludes this book with a brief summary that highlights the overarching conclusions of the text. As a textbook and a resource guide, Science and Method is a great success. It is a highly readable treatment of the material, one that will appeal to those involved in all disciplines of science and mathematics. Henri Poincare writes with a clarity that is rarely found in the works of such accomplished academics. This is a definitive work on the subject from one of the true geniuses of our time. Science and Method is one of Poincare's most well read books, and with good reason. It is everything a good science book should be. Educational and illuminating, it still maintains a readability that few texts on the subject do. This book is highly recommended for anybody interested in furthering their knowledge of the scientific method.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scientific Method: Its Function in Research and in Education Drawn from literature, class activities, and research work. I am indebted to my colleagues at Stanford Uni versity for their kindness in answering the questionnaire discussed in the second lecture. I have drawn freely from class reports of students for bibliographical data about men of science, and have especially profited by the reports of Mr. C. G. Shambaugh upon Charles Darwin and Francis Bacon. I am indebted to Dr. Lucia B. Mirrielees for suggesting the quotation which is introductory to this volume. I have been helped financially in the experimental work reported by two grants from the Stanford University Council of Research in the Social Sciences. Two of the lectures as here published are slightly extended from their form as given orally, but even so the reader is asked to be charitable in judging of the unity of this series. If the at tempt to incorporate philosophical, historical, and very re cent experimental material into a single structure has thrown any new light upon the immediate problems of re search, education, and eugenics, no apology for its brevity and incompleteness need be made.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sphere of Science: A Study of the Nature and Method of Scientific Investigation The primary object of this book is to point out with clearness what it is that constitutes a science, and to set forth with some detail what are the grounds upon which every science rests and what are the principles and rules that must be followed in order to construct one. It is maintained from the first chapter to the last that every department of knowledge is capable of scientific treatment and must be so treated before any great advance can be made towards a consistent and rational conception of the universe. Marvellous progress in some directions has without doubt been made during the last fifty years, owing to the rapid development of the physical sciences; but a lofty and symmetrical civilization will not be realized until all the other sciences are exalted to their true place in the general system. The chief need of our time in all departments of thought is not so much more facts as a more rational treatment of the facts already at hand. Nearly all the sciences are now undergoing a radical reconstruction; but "The New Astronomy," "The New Chemistry," "The New Political Economy," "The New Psychology," and "The New Theology" are not so much the products of new facts as of a more thoroughgoing and scientific way of looking at the old ones.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scientific Method in Education The history of the social evolution of the race should be a history of what the race has done, rather than a compilation of its theories; hence the great problem in educational method today is to determine the conditions under which the race has worked in the past and which of those conditions, if reinstated, will develop in consciousness a feeling of upward movement. That conception of evolution as a vital force in education which leaves the child a barbarian at the mercy of the rude and vicious forces in modern civilization has no part in educational method which is scientific. The rudeness of manner, the self-assertion which characterize the Ameri can child are a result of his reaction to social stimuli in which social ethics are con fused, in which adults are themselves pausing in the early stages of the ethical life and its expression through a mistaken notion that they must pause with the child. When Froebel said, Let us live with the child, he did not mean the life and experi ence Of the adult should be overwhelmed by the child's life and experience. There must be thinking in the attitude Of the intelligent seeker after truth if there is to be a clear understanding of the problem of the future, and this problem can be faced intelligently only as one has command of the resources and forces which have been evolved out of the past, and knows their natural law. To learn these things one must use the method of science. If the teacher as student can gain an intimate acquaintance with nature and humanity through the attitude Of science only, then must the special problem, the development of the individual, be solved only by the use Of method called in its specific application educational method.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Principles of Science: A Treatise on Logic and Scientific Method I'r may be truly asserted that the rapid progress of the physical sciences during the last three centuries has not been accompanied by a corresponding advance in the theory of reasoning. Physicists speak familiarly of Scientific Method, but they could not readily describe what they mean by that expression. Profoundly engaged in the study of particular classes of natural phenomena, they are usually too much engrossed in the immense and ever-accumulating details of their special sciences to generalise upon the methods of reasoning which they unconsciously employ. Yet few will deny that these methods of reasoning ought to be studied, especially by those who endeavour to introduce scientific order into less successful and methodical branches of knowledge.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New World of Science: Its Development During the War The bearing of such varied and productive goes far beyond the immediate issues of war. And reaches down to the very foundations of national welfare. The problems of peace are inextricably entangled with those of war, and if scientific methods and the aid of scientific research were needed in overcoming the menace of the enemy they will be no less urgently needed during the turmoil of reconstruction and the future competitions of peace. Remember the case of the aniline dyes. The first of which. Mauve. Was discovered by Sir William Perkin in 1856. Here, as in so many other instances, a great achievement of British initiative met with no recognition from the home government. And the fruits of Perkin's discovery were gathered abroad. Aniline. From which mauve is derived. Is one of the products of coal-tar. Formerly regarded as useless waste. Thousands of chemists. Thoroughly infused with the spirit of research in the German universities, and supported by great corporations. Enjoying the powerful encouragement of the Government. Have built upon this foundation the great dye industry of Germany. The basic processes involved in the preparation of the dyes are precisely those required for the manufacture of tri-nitm toluol and other high explosives. Thus the German govern ment. Bent on its preparations for war. Quite naturally developed an industry that brought great commercial prosperity and at the same time provided the factories. Equipment. And trained chemists necessary to produce thousands of tons of explosives. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Foundations of Science: Science and Hypothesis, the Value of Science, Science and Method The kernel of Poincaré's power lies in an oracle Sylvester often quoted to me as from Hesiod: The whole is less than its part. He penetrates at once the divine simplicity of the perfectly general case, and thence descends, as from Olympus, to the special concrete earthly particulars. A combination of seemingly extremely simple analytic and geometric concepts gave necessary general conclusions of im mense scope from which sprang a disconcerting wilderness of possible deductions. And so he leaves a noble, fruitful heritage. Says Love: His right is recognized now, and it is not likely that future generations will revise the judgment, to rank among the greatest mathematicians of all time.
