Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ancient Mineralogy The author is aware that in venturing upon a scientific theme he transcends the limits of his province, but he relies for indulgence on the fact that his subject is considered chiefly in the light in which it presents itself in the writings of those ancients whom it is his proper business to interpret. It is, moreover, possible for one who makes no pretension to original discovery - who, far from being a proficient, is himself a learner, to collect from various quarters, and arrange, what may contribute to the entertainment or instruction of others who want leisure or opportunity for similar pursuits.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Minerals In the preparation of this little book the writer has striven to answer questions rather than to rehearse facts. It has been made increasingly plain to him, in the course of his experience that the bulk of the Museum public demand not a text book, however simple, but a statement of the principles upon which may be built up an understanding of such an assemblage of natural objects as the one that has been brought together in the Morgan Memorial Hall of the American Museum of Natural History. The present volume is then an attempt to put into a simple and popular form the How? And the Why? Of mineralogy, to the end that the Visitor-may be enabled to interpret what he sees around him in this Hall. To an extent it has been written around the Introductory Series of the Collee tion, but in a larger sense the book and the exhibit have been prepared together, so that they are closely linked in idea and presentation. Much of the text has been suggested by questions put to the writer by those who in times past have sought information regarding the things of which it treats, and it is in the hope that some of these questions may thus be answered that he now presents it to them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual of Mineralogy and Geology A new edition of the following work having been call ed for, the author has been induced to remodel it, by the conviction that a method of teaching and studying the science different from, and superior to, that which had for merly been pursued in this country, ought to be adopted. That method is well known to have possessed too much of a traditionary character, and to have obliged the stu dent to depend more upon the ipse. Diorit of his instructor than his own investigation. In preparing this edition it has been the design of the author, so far as it was in his power, to furnish the student with a guide by means of which he might be satisfactorily conducted through the process of examining minerals, to the attainment of cor rect results. To accomplish this, sufficient information is given in the following pages, to enable him rightly to employ the characters of mineral substances and to trace the relations existing between them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Popular Mineralogy: Comprising a Familiar Account of Minerals and Their Uses But, whilst the study of living nature is daily becoming more generally followed and appreciated by all classes of society, the science of. Mineralogy has not enjoyed that degree of popularity to which it is entitled, by the very great attractions it possesses for all who delight to recreate their minds by the examination of 'the wonderful and bean tiful productions of nature, and to investigate their various degrees of utility to mankind, in the progress of the arts, manufactures, and sciences. This may arise from a variety of causes, of which the most apparent seems to be Me absence of that life and Me power of motion which are the peculiar attributes of the animal and vegetable kingdoms, and which add such a charm to their study. Those, however, who devote their leisure hours to the examination, even if merely superficial, of the mineral or inorganic productions of creation, will not fail to discover, that, though they possess neither life nor motion, nature, as if to compensate for these deficiencies, has bestowed upon them with a lavish hand all that can render them attractive to the eye or suggestive to the reflection and has not only decked them in the most gorgeous tints, but has endowed them with so much gracefulness and diversity of form, that.
