Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annals of the Philosophical Club of the Royal Society: Written From Its Minute Books The story of the Royal Society Club has been recently told by a member hardly less eminent for his literary gifts than as a geologist. But though much the senior, this was not the only social club in the Royal Society. A second was founded in 1847, and continued till 1901, when the two were united. Their aims, however, were not identical. The older club had grown up, perhaps without any formal beginning, as a social institution. The younger one, while not by any means repudiating this position, had more definite purposes. It arose from a sense of dissatisfaction, which was felt, rather before the middle of last century, at the condition and management of the Royal Society, by not a few of its more energetic and eminent Fellows. They were convinced that it was not occupying the position or exercising the influence in the country which it ought to be doing, and that this failure was partly due to the way in which its Fellows were elected; in other words, that there was a danger lest it should be said of the Society, as it was formerly of a very attractive College at Oxford, that the chief qualifications for its Fellowship were for the candidate to be 'well-born, well-dressed, and moderately learned [in science].' "The agitation for reform," to quote Sir A. Geikie's words, "became so urgent that, in 1846, the Council appointed a Committee to consider the mode of election of Fellows. The result of the deliberations of the Committee was seen next year in the adoption of a new series of statutes which wrought a revolution in the procedure of the Society in regard to this matter."

Download or read book William Robert Grove written by Professor Iwan Rhys Morus and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2017-01-05 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Robert Grove is one of the forgotten giants of nineteenth-century science. The improvements in battery technology developed by him helped power the Victorian telegraph; his essay On The Correlation of Physical Forces was widely recognised as a major contribution to natural philosophy; and he was the driving force behind the mid-century reform of the Royal Society. This book follows his scientific career and the culture of Victorian science within which he worked, to explore the ways in which he contributed to forging a distinct Welsh scientific identity in the nineteenth century.

Download or read book Quakers Jews and Science written by Geoffrey Cantor and published by Oxford University Press on Demand. This book was released on 2005-09-22 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This study examines how two minorities - the Quaker and Anglo-Jewish communities - engaged with the sciences. With their roots in the mid-seventeenth century, both communities maintained their religious and social norms throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, while standing outside the hegemony of the Anglican Church and being subject to various forms of discrimination. Yet for both Quakers and Jews science offered educational and career opportunities and participation in the wider society. They adopted their own scientific interests, with Quakers being attracted principally to the observational sciences. Drawing on a wealth of documentary material, much of which has not been analysed by previous historians, Geoffrey Cantor charts the involvement of Quakers and Jews in many different aspects of science: scientific research, science education, science-related careers, and scientific institutions ranging from the Royal Society to the Great Exhibition."--BOOK JACKET.
