Abstract
THE mental stimulus to be gained by the study of the historical development of science is of much greater value than is sometimes supposed. He who follows, from the first vague beginnings, the efforts of many workers in various lands, leading at length to some great discovery, whether of practical or of theoretical significance, will be apt to ask himself the question: “Could not I also do something to help forward human knowledge?”
