Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays in Scientific Synthesis The essays composing this volume have already appeared in various periodicals, such as Scientia, La Revue Philosophique, La Revue du Mois, the Monist, and also (before the war) in the Archiv fur die gesammte Psychologie and the Annalen der Naturphilosophie. They were revised and published in a French edition in 1912 (Felix Alcan, Paris). Although each of these essays is a study complete in itself, they are connected by one and the same synthetic spirit, and are animated by one and the same object: that of demonstrating the utility in the biological, psychological, and sociological fields of the theorist, who, without having specialized in any particular branch or subdivision of science, may nevertheless bring into those spheres that synthetic and unifying vision which is brought by the theorist-mathematician, with so much success, into the physico-chemical field of science. It is often said and often repeated that the English are not attracted by broad generalizations, which are too far above reality, and that they cannot, or do not care to, leave the safe ground of facts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scientific Lectures and Essays I say - facts of any kind whatsoever. If any of my readers should be inclined to say to themselves Geology may be a very pleasant study, but I have no special fancy for it. I had rather learn something of botany, astronomy, chemistry, or what not - I shall answer: By all means. Learn any branch of Natural Science you will. It matters little to me which you learn, provided you learn one at least. But bear in mind, and settle it in your hearts, that you will learn no branch of science soundly, so as to master it, and be able to make use of it, unless you acquire that habit and method of mind which I am trying to teach you in this book. I have tried to teach it you by geology, because geology is, perhaps, the simplest and the easiest of all physical sciences. It appeals more than any to mere common sense. It requires fewer difficult experiments, and expensive apparatus. It requires less previous knowledge of other sciences, Whether pure or mixed; at least in its rudimentary stages. It is more free from long and puzzling Greek and Latin words. It is specially, the poor man's science. But if you do not like it, study something else. Only study that as you must study geology; proceeding from the known to the unknown by observation and experiment.

This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nature of Science, and Other Essays This book is intended as a collection of five essays in the general area of logic and mathematics as applied to science, composed, at various times, during the course of the past decade. The develop ment of the methods and results of natural science is possibly the most significant intellectual contribution of modern western civili zation to the galaxy of man's supreme achievements. I use the term natural science in its widest sense, including all theoretical knowl edge which cannot by definition be included under the category of the divine sciences, and which comprehends knowledge both dis covered by the application of special scientific procedures and based on common sense in everyday life. In the same way the expression language of science is meant here to refer to the language which contains all statements, i.e., theoretical sentences, in contradistinction to emotional expressions, commands, etc., used for scientific purposes in everyday life. What is usually called science I take to be a more systematic continuation of those activities which we carry out in everyday life in order to learn more about the world around us. As in my earlier book Truth and Meaning, I have not distin guished between any special logic of the empirical sciences and logic in general, since I doubt if any such differentiation really exists. I have taken logic as the name of the discipline which ana lyzes the meaning of the concepts common to all the sciences, and establishes the general laws governing the concepts. But I do recog nize two chief parts of the analysis of linguistic expressions in science. Scientific investigation may be restricted to the forms of_ the linguistic expressions involved and their relation to objects out side of language. An investigation of this type comes within the field of logical syntax, is restricted to formal analysis and abstracts from designation. In the second case, an investigation may not be restricted to formal analysis, but may take designation into con sideration. An investigation of this type comes within the field of semantics, and includes the semantical analysis of the designationof expressions. It will be obvious that this second part of scientific analysis is considerably broader than the first. A further distinction should be made between formal science and empirical science. Formal science consists of analytic statements established by logic and mathematics; empirical science consists of synthetic statements established in the different fields of factual knowledge.

ON THE MNEMIC ORIGIN AND NATURE OF THE AFFECTIVE TENDENCIES I If we study the " behaviour " of the different organisms from the unicellular to man, we see that a whole series of their acts, and especially the most important, may be interpreted as the manifestation of a tendency of the organism to persist in or to return to its " stationary" physiological state--to use an epithet from Ostwald's energetics. In other words, if we reserve the name of " affective" for that special category of organic tendencies which are subjectively manifested in man in the form of "desires," "appetites," or " needs," and which objectively in man and the animals are translated into " nonmechanized movements," completed or nascent, then a whole series of the principal "affective tendencies" thus defined may be reduced to the single fundamental tendency of the organism to maintain its " physiological invariability." We see, for instance, that the most fundamental affective tendency of all, that of hunger, is in the long run nothing but the tendency to maintain or to reestablish the internal nutritive environment in the qualitative and quantitative conditions which enable the stationary metabolic state to continue. This tendency of the organism towards the invariability of its own metabolism has in the course of phyletic evolution become a tendency to pass through all those transitory physiological states that can re-establish the requisite conditions of the internal environment, i.e. a tendency to perform all the acts which have food as their object, and this without loss, at any stage, of its essential and original nature. The proof of this lies in the fact that, once the internal nutritive environment is restored to its normal conditions, every tendency in...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Century of Scientific Thought Other Essays Let us turn our attention to the Argument from Design, commonly so-called. My intention is to consider its position at the beginning of the last century, and the effect upon it of the great con troversies of the middle of that century which men think of as the Darwinian controversy. Finally, I desire to consider how that argument stands to day, after the storm and fury of that controversy has abated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biology was forged into a single, coherent science only within living memory. In this volume the thinkers responsible for the "modern synthesis" of evolutionary biology and genetics come together to analyze that remarkable event. In a new Preface, Ernst Mayr calls attention to the fact that scientists in different biological disciplines varied considerably in their degree of acceptance of Darwin's theories. Mayr shows us that these differences were played out in four separate periods: 1859 to 1899, 1900 to 1915, 1916 to 1936, and 1937 to 1947. He thus enables us to understand fully why the synthesis was necessary and why Darwin's original theory--that evolutionary change is due to the combination of variation and selection--is as solid at the end of the twentieth century as it was in 1859.

Most of the essay are of a purely scientific character; and from those which are not, I have endeavoured, without veiling my convictions, to exclude every word that could cause needless irritation. From America came the impulse which induced me to gather these 'fragments together, and to my friends in the United States I dedicate them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rough Ways Made Smooth: A Series of Familiar Essays on Scientific Subjects IT is scarcely necessary for me to explain the plan of the present work, because I have already - in introducing my Light Science for Leisure Hours, ' my Science Byways, ' and my Pleasant Ways in Science - described the method on which, as I think, such treatises as the present should be written. This work deals with similar subjects in a similar way; but I think the experience I have acquired in writing other works on the same plan has enabled me to avoid some defects in the present work which I have recognised in the others. The list of subjects indicates sufficiently the range over which the present volume extends. Some of them might be judged by their names to be in no way connected with science, but it will be found that none have been treated except in their scientific significance, though in familiar and untechnical terms.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Aim and Achievements of Scientific Method: An Epistemological Essay The following essay is an expansion of a paper read before the Aristotelian Society in February, 1906. I have to acknow ledge the kindness of the Committee, which has permitted me not only to embody here most of my original matter, but also to make use of the type in which it was standing. The work in its present form (with the exception of one or two trifling emendations) was printed in September, 1906, and presented to the University of London as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Science. The results described in the essay were reached in the course of a study of the problems of Science teaching in schools, and are believed to have very definite pedagogical applications. These applications are not considered in the present volume, but, in view of the paucity of writings in English which treat of the pedagogy of Science upon a philosophical basis, I have thought it legitimate to direct the attention of the interested reader to the places where I have discussed some of my topics from the professional point of view. For the same reason I venture to refer to the chapter on Science Teaching in Professor J W. Adamson's book on The Practice of Instruction.
