Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rise of Modern Physics: A Popular Sketch When so many new and important things are at hand waiting to be done it is not easy to answer the question as to just how much time the consideration of the past deserves. All of us are probably agreed that the past must be kept in the background; and yet we are almost unanimous in thinking that the past must not be for gotten. A thing which is not to be forgotten must be known. The following pages represent what might be called an irreducible minimum for one who wishes to acquire a just perspective by not forgetting the past in physical science.

The astronomers of the Alexandrian school set themselves to ascertain the encral laws of these motions. This could not Well done without a hypothesis; and the simplest was, that the planets move eastwards in circles, and at a uniform rate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Popular Science This volume is not, strictly speaking, a scientific reader; its aim is simply to provide material suitable for imparting the habit of careful reading and, in a measure, the voe_abulary of scientific literature. Articles of pure science are valuable, indeed, in the hands of teachers familiar with the techni calities of the subject treated, but they lay too heavy a' burden upon the average instructor of modern languages, not to speak of the students. Our selections have therefore been made from that branch of writing which, while drawing upon facts and scientific data for material, permits the display of the author's fancy or brightness, and blends instruction with interest.
