Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What are you, where did you come from, and whither are you bound?"—the question which from Homer's days has been put to the wayfarer in strange lands—is likewise the all-absorbing question which man is ever asking of the universe of which he is himself so tiny yet so wondrous a part. From the earliest times the ultimate purpose of all scientific research has been to elicit fragmentary or partial responses to this question, and philosophy has ever busied itself in piecing together these several bits of information according to the best methods at its disposal, in order to make up something like a satisfactory answer. In old times the best methods which philosophy had at its disposal for this purpose were such as now seem very crude, and accordingly ancient philosophers bungled considerably in their task, though now and then they came surprisingly near what would to-day be called the truth.

Nevertheless, a brief analysis of this opinion will suffice to show that it cannot be maintained without landing us in manifest absurdity. We need only recollect that every portion of matter is compressible, ? may be made to occupy less space than before, ? and that compressibility, implying the closer approach of the constituent particles of the body, is utterly out of the ques- tion, unless empty space exists between these particles. We are therefore obliged to admit that the molecules of which perceptible matter 1 See Introduction, 8.] XL, / is composed are not in immediate contact, but are separated from each other by enveloping tracts of unoccupied space. But no sooner do we seek refuge in this assumption than we are again met by difficulties no less insuperable than the one just noticed.
