THE BEGINNINGS OF SCIENCE



A HISTORY OF SCIENCE

BOOK I

Should the story that is about to be unfolded be found to lack
interest, the writers must stand convicted of unpardonable lack
of art. Nothing but dulness in the telling could mar the story,
for in itself it is the record of the growth of those ideas that
have made our race and its civilization what they are; of ideas
instinct with human interest, vital with meaning for our race;
fundamental in their influence on human development; part and
parcel of the mechanism of human thought on the one hand, and of
practical civilization on the other. Such a phrase as
"fundamental principles" may seem at first thought a hard saying,
but the idea it implies is less repellent than the phrase itself,
for the fundamental principles in question are so closely linked
with the present interests of every one of us that they lie
within the grasp of every average man and woman--nay, of every
well-developed boy and girl. These principles are not merely the
stepping-stones to culture, the prerequisites of knowledge--they
are, in themselves, an essential part of the knowledge of every
cultivated person.
