Volume XVI is in -three parts: First, the editor, Garrett Serviss, in -"How to Use the Popular Science Library," describes -the way the reader may enjoy and profit most from -its store of scientific knowledge in connection with -his everyday experiences. Then follows Arthur -Selwyn-Brown's "History of Science," an excellent -foundation for the study of man's achievements in -his struggle to understand and turn to his own use -the forces of nature. Here is a concise record of -progress from the earliest times until now—discoveries -and inventions past, present, and about to come.</p> - -<p>The third part of Volume XVI occupies nearly -half the book. It is the General Index, which is -as complete and as practical as it is possible for an -index to be. Here, then, we have sixteen volumes -on science, every work agreeable to read, every work -complete in itself, and all of them, including the -Index, prepared by specialists, each of whom has -already gained distinction in the field he covers. -The Index binds the collection into a consistent -whole, making every bit of knowledge in the sixteen -books available to reader or student without delay.</p> - -<p>The style employed in the Index is a standard for -such material. Volume numbers are represented by -the Roman numerals, i, ii, iii, iv, v, vi, vii, viii, ix, -x, xi, xii, xiii, xiv, xv, xvi. Pages are indicated<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_4" id="Page_4">[Pg 4]</a></span> -by figures. All topics and subtopics are arranged -alphabetically.</p> - -<p>When you read or study the Popular Science -Library, keep the Index volume at hand whenever -it is convenient. It will add greatly to your interest -and give you a depth of insight into these matters -if you can compare one author's opinions and descriptions -with those of another. If you are consulting -the Library as a reference collection for information -on particular topics, the Index will give -you volume and page for every bit of text on the -subject you are considering.</p> - -<p>The Popular Science Library is unique in the number -and standing of its authors and in the care that -has been taken to make it the easiest as well as the -most engrossing of all scientific collections for the -reader or student to use.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_5" id="Page_5">[Pg 5]</a></span></p> -<div class="chapter"></div> -<hr class="chap" /> - - - - -<h2>CONTENTS</h2> - - -<div class="center"> -<table border="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" summary="CONTENTS"> - <tr> - <td colspan="2"></td> - <th>PAGE</th> - </tr> - <tr> - <td colspan="2"><span class="smcap">How to Use the Popular Science Library.

If, as certain persons -assert, science may be accused of having rendered -war more destructive and terrible, yet, on the other -hand, no one can deny that it was science that saved -the world from sliding backward into an age of -despotism.</p> - -<p>The true importance of science for everybody -arises from its rapidly increasing service in the -development of human industry in all its forms, -for industry is the mother of democracy.</p> - -<p>Said Gabriel Lippman, the French physicist, inventor -of color photography, who died in the summer -of 1921: "For thousands of years science progressed -by groping and feeling its way, and coincidentally -industry got slowly on by guesswork; but within the -last century science has developed more than during -all preceding time, while industry has sprung upon<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_10" id="Page_10">[Pg 10]</a></span> -its feet and begun to march with the strides of a -giant."</p> - -<p>Notwithstanding its immense importance and the -vast extent and complication of its application in -modern times, science is not really difficult for any -person of ordinary school education and of good -natural intelligence to comprehend, provided it is -presented in a clear, plain, common sense manner, -in popular language with illustrations drawn from -everyday life and experience. The much talked-of -methods of science are, after all, nothing more than -the methods of common sense, applied with systematic -care by minds disciplined to a high degree of -efficiency. And, in fact, the only practical difference -between the mind of a trained scientist and that of -any other intelligent person is that the scientist has -acquired a way or habit of looking at and thinking -about things and events, which enables him to get at -their inmost nature and meaning more swiftly and -accurately than he could do if he went to work in a -haphazard manner as, in truth, his forerunners -of the earlier centuries were obliged to do. The -pioneer must always work by rule of thumb, but -when he has exploited his field he knows better ways.</p> - -<p>Each branch of science has its own particular -methods, but it is not necessary for the average -reader to study these special methods in order to -become able to grasp the facts and principles that -have been developed by them. The results are all -thrown into a common store—or should be if science -is to attain its utmost usefulness to humanity—and -from the common store the great public, the people -at large, should be enabled freely to draw. The -object of this series of books is to form such a store -of science for the people.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_11" id="Page_11">[Pg 11]</a></span></p> - -<p>It may encourage those who look with some -degree of timidity upon the task of trying to understand -the great discoveries and achievements of -modern science to know that even the ablest scientists, -leaders in their own particular branches, do -not pretend, or attempt, to grasp the special methods -or the technicalities of any division of science except -that one in which their own work is done. They -stand, with regard to other branches, practically on -the same footing with the unscientific reader, having -over him only such possible advantages as -their special training in clear thinking and in the -intense application of the mental powers may -give them.</p> - -<p>Besides, science is really the most interesting -thing in the world—outside of men and women—and -<em>they</em> would be less interesting, even to themselves, -if science had not transformed their lives as well -as their surroundings. If one of Voltaire's favorite -messengers from some other, wiser world had visited -our earth a few hundred years ago, or even only one -hundred, and should now repeat his call, he would be -amazed, and no doubt delighted, by the changes in -every feature of life and society which he would find -that science had brought about, as if by magic, -during the interval between his visits. He would be -likely to exclaim: "Some great teacher and trainer -from a more enlightened part of the universe must -have been here since I saw this world before. What a -marvelous new spirit he has imparted to these creatures. -Through him they have become more masterful -and more like sons of God."</p> - -<p>See if you can find a single detail of your daily life -that is not affected by science, or upon which science -does not throw new light. It is fascinating to trace<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_12" id="Page_12">[Pg 12]</a></span> -out the scientific relations of the simplest things that -surround us, or the most ordinary occurrences and -incidents.</p> - -<p>Start with your first awakening in the morning, -and you will perceive that there is not a thing that -you see, or that in any way attracts your attention, -that is not touched and illuminated by science, and -often in the most unexpected and delightful ways. -It is by considering these things that one may best -perceive how to use the volumes of this little library. -As you open your eyes in the morning you see a -bright glow through the window curtain, then you -know that the sun has risen.</p> - -<p>But stop a moment. What does that mean—"the -sun has risen"? The sun has not "risen" at all. -But, one of the greatest facts of the science of -astronomy is illustrated before your eyes—a fact -that it took mankind thousands of years to find out. -You are standing in the astronomer's shoes now, if -you choose to wear them. This is a part of his field -of science. It took him a long time to convince -the world that the "rising" of the sun in the east -next morning after its "setting" in the west really -means that the globular earth has turned half way -over during the night. If this seems simple to you -now, it seemed very hard to comprehend to our -remote ancestors, who, though reasoning men like -ourselves, had not learned as much about the relativity -of motion as we now know, though even we may -be puzzled by some of the consequences that Einstein -has drawn from it. And a hundred other things -that astronomy has discovered about the sun and the -other suns, called stars, and the other worlds, called -planets, immediately rush to your mind, and you -turn to the volume on astronomy to read about them.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_13" id="Page_13">[Pg 13]</a></span></p> - -<p>But this is only a beginning of the string of everyday -incidents that are rendered curiously interesting -as soon as their scientific relations and meanings -become evident to you. Science is right at your -elbow to raise questions and to answer them the -moment you step out of bed, and your mind begins -to work.</p> - -<p>As you throw open the window to see what kind -of a day it is going to be, whether fair, or cloudy, or -rainy, cool or warm, you draw your conclusions -from the appearance of sky and air, but in doing -that you are entering another field covered by another -branch of science and included in our little -library—meteorology, or the realm of the air—and -you may be sure that the correctness of the conclusions -that you draw from the aspect of the clouds -and the feeling of the air will be greatly increased, -not only in certainty, but also in interest, if you -read what the students of this subject have learned -about the laws and the mysteries of the rains, clouds, -cyclones, barometric pressures, great winds and -genial breezes, great storms and little storms; in -short, the whole wonderful science of the atmosphere, -that invisible, yet powerful kingdom of -the air, which we are just beginning to annex -to our world of activities without regard to what -its natural occupants, the birds, think of such -an invasion.</p> - -<p>Now you leave the window to begin making your -morning ablutions. You turn on a faucet and take -a drink, or plunge hands and face into the refreshing -liquid, so cool, lively, and invigorating. But a bird -or any four-footed animal may find just as keen -physical enjoyment in the touch and taste of the -water as you do. You, however, because you are a<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_14" id="Page_14">[Pg 14]</a></span> -thinking being, possess a source of enjoyment -from the touch and appearance of the water that is -not open to those humbler creatures, and that source -of enjoyment springs from the principles and facts -of another branch of science which the mere sight -of the running water may call to mind if you have -caught the spirit of these books—the science of chemistry, -whose early history is filled with that irresistible -kind of romance that pertains to the search for -Eldorado, or the strivings of the human spirit after -the powers of magic; for the realm of chemistry -was once a kind of semi-scientific dreamland, wherein -the "alchemists" delved at the same time for the -"philosopher's stone" which was to turn base metal -into gold, and for the wand of the magician which -would give to its possessor the boundless gratifications -of a Faust. Water is no mystery to the -lower animals, but it is a great mystery even yet -to the highest ones—ourselves—because we have -been enabled to analyze it. You cannot look at it -pouring from the faucet, and sparkling into bubbles, -without recalling the fact that it is composed of two -invisible, silent gases, and that chemistry tells us -not only how to make the water disappear by -taking those gases apart, but also how to form new -water by making the two gases combine. The mystery -is—why should this be so? It is a captivating -question, and the business of the book on chemistry -is to give you all possible light on the solution of -that question, and others of a like nature. You will -find, too, that the very latest chemistry has, strangely -enough, discovered a sort of justification for the -extravagant expectations of the ancient alchemists, -by finding a way in which one substance may actually -change, or be changed, into another, different<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_15" id="Page_15">[Pg 15]</a></span> -substance—one "element" taking the form of -another "element"—and also by getting clues to -the existence of marvelous locked-up energies in -matter, the release of which would give man -control over powers that could properly be called -"magical."</p> - -<p>After finishing your toilet, with all the suggestions -and remembrances of chemical science that it has -produced, you start to quicken the circulation of -your blood by catching up a pair of dumb-bells, or -Indian clubs, or by pulling elastic cords, or banging -a leather ball with your fists, as if you meant to go in -for the championship of the world. Now, what -taught you the value of such exercises? You are -still on the ground of science, and you are practically -demonstrating the principles of another of its -branches—the science of health, or hygiene, which -is a part of the subject of medicine, taken in its -broadest signification, for, as the volume on that -subject will assure you, the greatest service that -this science can render to mankind is in teaching us -the laws of our physical existence, and indicating, -directly or indirectly, how all the functions of the -body may be kept in the best working order by -proper attention and exercise. You will find such -things pointed out in the several sciences that deal -with the body, such as physiology and medicine.</p> - -<p>While you are making the leather ball strike the -ceiling with resounding whacks, your dog, excited -by the inspiring noise, bursts into the room, and -interrupts your exercise with his enthusiastic morning -greetings, expressed as energetically by his wagging -tail as by his joyous barks and licks, all anticipatory -of a lively morning run. He brings immediately -into your mind the thought of still another -division of science—zoölogy—to which you will devote -many pleasant half-hours of reading, for it is -full of most entertaining matter, as well as of matter -calculated to awaken profound and useful thought -concerning the relations of the many different members -of the animal world to one another, and especially -to their head and chief, man, to whom the -supervision of the whole was, according to the Bible -story, originally committed. Familiar as your dog -may be to you, there are a hundred particulars of -his family relationships, his descent from wild -ancestors, etc., which can only become known to you -through the studies that have been devoted to the -science of zoölogy by curious-minded investigators -from the times of Aristotle and Pliny down to our -own day, when we have seen an ex-President of the -United States wandering adventurously through -some of the remotest portions of the inhabited globe, -seeking fresh knowledge of, and personal acquaintance -with, the rarer kinds of wild animals, and hunting -down in their native wilds great beasts which -the Cæsars used to admire from the security of the -imperial seat, high above the bloody sands of the -Roman arenas. And this modern ruler, after having -laid down the political power intrusted to him by -fellow citizens, found no occupation so attractive as -that of adding something to the growing stores of -science.</p> - -<div class="figcenter" style="width: 700px;"><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_16" id="Page_16">[Pg 16]</a></span> -<img src="images/illus023.jpg" width="700" height="438" alt="" /> -<div class="caption"> -<div class="right">Painting, Chas.

HORSE AND HUNTING DOG OF LONG AGO</p> - -<p>From an ancient Cretan fresco</p></div> -</div> - -<p>Next, your stomach, awakened to its wants and -needs by the restored circulation resulting from your -lively exercises, reminds you of what will be at the -same time a pleasure and a means of sustained -strength for body and mind, your breakfast. Breakfast -properly comes under the supervision of the -science of physiology. It is also suggestive of mechanics -and physics, since it has to do with the -stoking of the furnace that keeps the bodily engine -up to its work. Here you are face to face with a -branch of science which you could no more safely -neglect than an engineer or a fireman could neglect -to learn the elements and principles underlying his -critically important occupation. One of the first -sciences to be systematically developed was that of -man's body, including its structure, or anatomy, and -its functioning, or internal action, physiology. You -will find that correct ideas on these subjects were -slow in being developed, yet even in the most -ancient times men were shrewd and wise enough -to understand the importance of knowing something -about their own bodies, in order to be able -to take proper care of them, and to deal with -wounds and sickness.</p> - -<p>It was an old saying that "the proper study of -mankind is man." But that is a study which has -two main branches. The first covers the subjects of -physiology, anatomy, medicine, etc., while the second -relates to that even more intimate part of ourselves -which has ever been a fascinating mystery, and -which we call the mind, or sometimes the soul. This -is the theme of the science of psychology, whose -name comes from that delicate, inscrutable spirit, -<em>Psyche</em>, the Soul, which plays like a flitting sunbeam -through the magical atmosphere of Greek mythology. -Now, this subtle and exquisite science, -often more poetic and mystic than scientific in its -original character, presents itself in its more sober -and practical dress to you as soon as, having finished -your breakfast and prepared your bodily energies -for the day's work, you begin to meditate on the -problems of the day opening before you.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_18" id="Page_18">[Pg 18]</a></span></p> - -<p>When you went to bed, perhaps your mind was -agitated by some important matter of business -through whose intricacies you could not clearly see -your way. You turned and tossed on your pillow, -and stated and restated the facts and arguments and -lines of reasoning, but all the while they became more -obscure and entangled until at last, in sheer exhaustion, -you fell into a troubled sleep. But this morning, -to your immense surprise and gratification, -without any effort on your part, and while you are -occupied with other things—putting on your clothes, -hitting the ball, playing with the dog, eating your -bacon and eggs, or what not—suddenly the elusive -clue or solution, so vainly sought the night before, -presents itself plain before you. In an instant, in -the twinkling of an eye, the troublesome problem is -solved, as easily and naturally as water runs down -hill, and you are provoked at yourself for having -been so dull and stupid as not to see it all before. -But not so fast! You were stupid, to be sure, but -it was not your mind's fault as you are now disposed -to think, but the trouble lay in your physical fatigue. -You were driving your brain too long without refreshment, -and it became like an engine whose oil -cups are empty. It could not receive and report the -impressions of thought.</p> - -<p>Now this kind of experience comes many times -to many men and women, and it is the purpose of -the book on psychology in this series to make everybody -acquainted with the laws of the working of -our minds through our brains. Yet, how many of -those who are frequently puzzled by such things -are aware that there is a branch of science, one of -the most captivatingly interesting of all, devoted -especially to this subject? By studying the volume<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_19" id="Page_19">[Pg 19]</a></span> -on psychology you will get light on just such things -as so greatly puzzled you, and haunted you, before -the solution of your problem unexpectedly rose up, -as it were, and stood plain before you on the breakfast -table, after having for twenty-four hours resisted -your utmost efforts to master it, or even to -get an effective hold upon it. It is unnecessary to -speak of the immense importance to all human -beings of a knowledge of the laws governing the -manifestations of the mind, by taking advantage of -which they may get the most out of themselves with -the least loss of time and expenditure of effort.</p> - -<p>Let us keep on further along the wonderful road -of science on which your feet begin almost unknowingly -to tread from the moment of your awakening, -and which they follow, often just as unconsciously, -until you fall asleep at the close of another day; -while, as we have just seen, even when we are asleep -our minds are not altogether inactive, and may even -secretly disentangle the puzzles of the day while our -tired brains are restoring themselves with slumber. -Perhaps you live in the suburbs of a city, or far -from the business center, and have to take a considerable -journey from your house to your place of -work or business. Maybe you go by automobile, or -by street car, or by a trolley route, or take a commuters' -train. In any event, whether you drive -your own car, or ride in one drawn by a motor or a -locomotive engine, you are brought face to face with -the science of physics, including, of course, not only -mechanics, but also, in our own day, electricity -and magnetism. If you glance at a steam locomotive, -puffing and blowing, and then at a smooth, -silent electric motor drawing a long train, and then -at a swift automobile winding and turning with<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_20" id="Page_20">[Pg 20]</a></span> -serpentine agility through crowds of slow horse-drawn -vehicles—in all cases your memory must -recall the long, hard road by which these things were -brought about, and you must be lacking in intelligent -curiosity if you do not resolve to know for yourself, -not only the history of these triumphs of human -invention, but the principles of action upon which -they depend. If you have a car, it would be a good -thing to drive it yourself and learn to take care of -its machinery yourself, for thus you would go far -toward mastering the elementary principles of the -science of mechanics, which has done more than all -other things combined to transform the face of the -world we live in. You cannot, of course, acquire all -this knowledge by practical experience, but by putting -together what you observe with what you read -in the volumes devoted to mechanics, physics, chemistry, -electricity, etc., you will find that every day -is a school day for you in which you have learned -something new, useful, and interesting, and something, -moreover, which every wide-awake person in -this wide-awake age ought necessarily to know, and -can know by pursuing such a course as that just suggested. -Your morning's ride to work will be transformed -into a delightful intellectual experience if -you prepare yourself by a little daily reading to -understand the construction and manner of working -of all the machines, engines, and mechanisms -presented on every side to your inspection.</p> - -<p>But machinery is not everything in life. Suppose -that as you ride along your eye is caught by the great -beauty of the flower gardens by the roadside, their -blossoms bright in the morning sunshine and sparkling -with the yet undried dew, as if sprinkled with -diamonds. Perhaps your attention may never be<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_21" id="Page_21">[Pg 21]</a></span>fore -have happened to be called so strongly to these -objects, and possibly you have hitherto remained -almost unacquainted with the names and peculiarities -of some of the most common plants and flowers. -But this morning, for some accidental reason, which -may have a psychological origin, you are particularly -charmed with the brilliant sight, and you resolve -that you will be no longer ignorant of what could, -manifestly, give you so much pleasure, besides being -of unquestionable usefulness. When you return -home you will take up the volume on botany, and it -may lead you into a realm of mental delight previously -unknown to you.</p> - -<p>If it is the springtime, you may be interested by -the sight of a tall, graceful tree, as lofty as a pine, -and as straight in trunk, with many exquisite blossoms -hanging from the pendulous stems on its great -limbs, fifty or more feet above the ground, as if it -were a flower garden in the air for the special delectation -of the birds. Having never heard of a flowering -tree outside the tropics, you feel a keen desire to -know what this one is, and thus a way of introduction, -founded on keen, personal interest, is opened -for you to the science of botany. And few persons -can take a ride, or a walk, anywhere in city or country -or park, without having attention attracted by -some unknown flower or plant, or tree, and without -becoming aware how much pleasure is lost, and how -much useful knowledge missed, by lack of the easily -acquired knowledge of these things, which anybody -can have by giving to it only that amount of time -which would otherwise be wasted almost as completely -as if the eyes were kept closed and the mind -dismissed from its home in the brain. More mysterious, -and not less fascinating than flowers and<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_22" id="Page_22">[Pg 22]</a></span> -trees, are the birds and insects that flit by on their -own errands. To explain them you have the volume -on zoölogy, the science of animal life. Botany and -zoölogy together go far to revolutionize the ordinary -man's ideas about the attractiveness of outdoor life.</p> - -<p>For the cultivator of the soil, whether farmer, -gardener, or fruit grower, botany, of course, is the -queen of sciences—though he may not safely remain -ignorant of the others mentioned, which form a -brilliant court for his queen. In no direction has -science lately proved itself so indispensable as in -the application of botanical knowledge to the improvement -of agricultural operations of all kinds. -In France, always one of the richest of lands in this -respect, the government has since the war made -special provisions for placing instruction in botany -and plant physiology, and the results of all advances -in the science of the vegetable kingdom, before the -pupils of the primary as well as those of the secondary -and higher schools. Botanical reading and -study are encouraged in every possible way. One -of the most significant propositions for the extension -of this educational reform consists in the suggestion -that the schools in the country districts give much -more attention to the various branches of botanical -knowledge than the city schools do, for the purpose -not only of supplying instruction that will be of fundamental -practical use to the young people who grow -up on the land and are to make its cultivation their -life's occupation, but also of stimulating a love of the -country for itself, its scenes, its atmosphere, its -society, its amusements, and its simple, beautiful, -and healthful ways of life.</p> - -<p>As your train, or car, rushes through a rock cut -where the roadway has been carried, without change<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_23" id="Page_23">[Pg 23]</a></span> -of level or grade, through the round back of a hill, -you may happen to see on the side walls of the -excavation curious striations, or cross checkings, of -the rock surface, or alternate strata, or layers, of -varying color and texture; some composed of -smooth-faced stone, of a dark, uniform color, and -others of coarse granular masses of variegated hue, -some of whose particles flash like microscopic mirrors -in the glancing sunlight that grazes the top of -the cut. Here, then, you are plunged into the -wonder world of the geologist and the mineralogist, -the subject of one of the most interesting of our -volumes. That man must indeed be dull of intellect -who does not feel a thrill of interest at the sight of -these signs and inscriptions, written by the ancient -hand of nature in the rocks, and telling, in language -far more easily decipherable than the hieroglyphics -of Egypt, the story of the gradual growth of this -round planet on whose surface we are confined, like -flies or ants, as it rotates and revolves in empty -space, circling with us around a star, ninety-three -million miles away, called the sun, which saw the -birth of our world and has ever since kept it warmed -and lighted with its rays.</p> - -<p>In those layers of rock in the railway cut you see -the leaves of the book of geology, infinitely older -than the oldest scripture from man's hands, and -relating things that occurred in those far-off nights -and mornings of time that flitted over the globe ages -before the human stem had set off from the trunk -of terrestrial life. These geologic pages speak of -occurrences in the building of the world that happened -millions of years ago, and millions of years -apart, though they have left marks and vestiges that -the eye can discern as easily as if they had been the -work of yesterday. No observant person can ride -twenty miles through the country, especially in a -hilly region, without having the fundamental facts -of geology continually before him, and all that he -needs in order to comprehend these things is a little -preparatory reading, accompanied and followed by -intelligent thought and observation. Anybody to -whom all rocks look alike, and all hills the same, -needs a little awakening of the mind. He is one of -the persons had in view when this series was conceived -and written, and he has no occasion to feel -in the slightest degree offended by such a statement, -for the simple fact that probably ninety-nine one-hundredths -of his fellow citizens, and they among -the best in the community, are just as unfamiliar -with the plainest facts of geology as he is. Geology -is not a difficult science to master in its main outlines, -and there are few more fascinating when once -its drift is caught. Even the beginner in the reading -of the volume on geology, by seizing such chances of -observation as every ride or walk affords, may in a -very short time acquire the ability to read the history -of a landscape from its face, to recognize the work -of the glaciers in the great Age of Ice, to see where -ancient streams flowed, or where molten rock has -gushed up through the surface layers of the earth's -crust, and even to recognize on sight some of the -fossils, which are under everybody's feet in some -parts of the country, and which still retain the forms -of animals some of which were among the primal -inhabitants of the earth, whose lines have died out, -while others, though their individual lives expired -tens or hundreds of millions of years ago, bear in -their fossilized forms a close resemblance to modern -relatives and descendants whose generations still -flourish in the living world in this twentieth century -of man's latest historic era.</p> - -<p>Presently, turning from the attractions of the outdoor -world, which seem just as entrancing the hundredth -time you look upon them as they did the first -time, particularly if you have cultivated the habit -not merely of noticing but of thinking and reading -about them, you take up the morning newspaper, in -which most of your companions of the car are -already deeply buried, and amid the political news, -the personal gossip, the inevitable exploitation of -the deeds of criminals, the foreign intelligence, and -the social gossip that falls under your eyes, your -attention is caught (this is an actual happening of -not long ago) by the headline: "John Daniel, the -orang-utan, is dead." This sounds odd. There has -been no animal's obituary in the papers since Barnum -lost his biggest elephant, and bequeathed its -skeleton to science. You read further and find an -interview with a professor about the human relationships, -or apparent relationships, of the anthropoid -apes, of whom "John Daniel" would probably have -been the acknowledged king if his relatives of the -woods could have understood the regard in which -he was held by his white-skinned and clothes-wearing -jailers. You will probably cut out that paragraph -and put it aside for further consideration, -remembering that there are at least three volumes -in your Popular Science set at home, that on -zoölogy, that on geology, and that on anthropology, -in which there will be an abundance of interesting -and authoritative matter bearing on this most important -subject—for important you will consider -it now that the death of a kind of caricature of -humanity in the zoölogical garden that had so long<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_26" id="Page_26">[Pg 26]</a></span> -amused the children as well as their elders with its -humanlike motions, habits, looks, and pranks, has -suddenly brought the whole question up among the -news of the day, affording you a new light on a -matter which you had hitherto thought to belong -exclusively to the field of the professors of zoölogy -and their students. Hereafter you will disposed -to take a broader view of all these things, and will -be in a better position to understand and enjoy the -discussions of learned scientists when they are interviewed -by newspaper men on subjects of this -kind. The inquiring spirit of the time requires this -concession even if in your private opinion there is no -real relationship between men and apes. And, without -regard to any such questions, you will find the -volume on anthropology immensely interesting and -informing.</p> - -<p>Finally, as your morning's trip comes to an end, -your attention is recalled from the natural to the -mechanical sciences. You descend from your car or -train, to go to your office. Your now fully awakened -mind, alert to all the scientific relations of -everything about you, can no longer keep from -dwelling upon the underlying meanings of this marvelous -display of realized human dreams. With the -speed of the wind you are carried deep under the -city's pavements, inclosed in a little flying parlor, -in the midst of an artificial subterranean daylight, -far beyond the reach of the solar rays, emulating the -self-luminous creatures of the deep sea bottom; or -you go shooting past the window of third, fourth, -and fifth stories, or even above the levels of roofs, -and you cannot but reflect and marvel that electricity -does it all; electricity, that strange imp with blue -star eyes no bigger than pin points, and a child's -crown of little crinkling, piercing rays, which seemed -so amusing when you were at school in the old days -of frictional electric machines, when it was a great -joke to give the cat a shock and see her flee with a -squall, her hair standing on end in spite of herself. -But now electricity has become a giant of unrivaled -and terrific power, spurning the heavy-limbed Brobdingnag, -steam, from its swift path, and fast making -the world all its own—except its master, man, -who is still, however, half afraid of his new and -all-capable servant.</p> - -<div class="figcenter" style="width: 700px;"><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_24" id="Page_24">[Pg 24]</a></span> -<img src="images/illus035.jpg" width="700" height="358" alt="" /> -<div class="caption"><p>EXHIBITION OF COPIES OF PREHISTORIC PAINTINGS FROM THE CAVERNS AT ALTAMIRA, SPAIN</p></div> -</div> - -<div class="figcenter" style="width: 700px;"><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_25" id="Page_25">[Pg 25]</a></span> -<img src="images/illus036.jpg" width="700" height="485" alt="" /> -<div class="caption"> - -<div class="right">Painting by Chas.

When, upon reaching -your office, you telephone to your wife that Mr. Blank -will be home to dinner with you, you cannot form -the slightest idea of how the miracle of distant -speech is accomplished unless you are either an -electrician yourself, or have read intelligently upon -the subject of the applications of electricity to the -motivation of all kinds of machinery, a subject to -which an entire volume is devoted in our series. It -would be a kind of shame and reproach to an intelligent -man to be ignorant of the way his telephone -works, and of the simple scientific principle on which -it is constructed. If telephones, and such things, -were products of nature and grew on trees, we might -be excusable for not knowing exactly their secret; -but being made by men, with the same limitations -as those that circumscribe us all, we ought at least to -understand them.</p> - -<p>Thus, by a simple review of the series of common -happenings that arrive every day to everybody, we -perceive how intimately and indissolubly the various<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_28" id="Page_28">[Pg 28]</a></span> -branches of science treated of in this compact library -of science, are linked with all that we do, including -our most unconscious acts and our most habitual -subjects of thought. We have taken for illustration -the morning history of a person supposed to live -amid urban or suburban surroundings. Equally -illuminating would be that of an inhabitant of a -village or a rural district, and even more suggestive -in many respects. The dweller in the country is -brought into closer association with the infinitely -changing aspects of nature than the city dweller -enjoys. The simplest incident in the life of a person -living on a farm may be the beginning of a thread -of connection leading, like the clue of a labyrinth, -into the heart of some of the most marvelous departments -of science, and resulting in a mental revolution -for the fortunate person who follows out the -clue under such guidance as these volumes afford. -The writer has remembered from boyhood the indelible -impression made upon his mind by the finding -of an Indian arrowhead in a recently ploughed -field. The shapeliness of the beautifully chipped -piece of flint, almost as translucent at the edges as -horn, the delicate tapering point which, as if by -miracle, had remained unbroken probably since colonial -times, the two curious little "ears" carefully -formed on each side of the flat triangular base to -facilitate attachment to the head of the arrow, and -the thought, suggested by older persons, that this -weapon might actually have been used in some midnight -attack on a white settlement, made more terrifying -by the frightful Mohawk war whoop and the -display of the reeking scalps of human victims in -the glare of burning stockade and cabins—all these -things bred a keen desire to learn the particulars of<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_29" id="Page_29">[Pg 29]</a></span> -the history of the red warriors of the Five Nations, -the "Romans of the New World," and also to know -something about the life and customs of this strange, -savage race of mankind which continued to live in an -"age of stone" on a continent that had never known -civilization. No volume like that on the history -and development of man in this series existed at -that time; but if such a book had existed and had -fallen into the hands of the finder of the arrowhead, -it would surely have fascinated him more than -"Robinson Crusoe" did, because a boy can distinguish -as readily as a grown person the superior -interest of the true over the pretended, provided -that the true possesses the real elements of -romance.</p> - -<p>So, too, the writer remembers having an interest -in mineralogy awakened in his mind, never to be -obliterated, by the sight of another plowed field, in -the southern skirts of the Adirondack Mountains, -whose freshly turned furrows glittered in the sunshine -with thickly scattered quartz crystals, some of -the larger and more perfect of which blazed across, -the whole breadth of the field, like huge diamonds, -and made the heart of the finder beat with an excitement -akin to that of the discoverer of a Koh-i-noor. -There were also some very curious "stone buttons" -which one could break out with a hammer from slate -rocks along the Schoharie Creek, and which, when -cracked open, were found to be composed of pyrites -that resembled pure silver—and sometimes gold—freshly -broken. Now, things of this sort are always -attracting the attention and awakening the curiosity -of children living in the country, but the real -pleasure and instruction that they might afford are -usually missed because of the lack in the family<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_30" id="Page_30">[Pg 30]</a></span> -library of popularly written books on the natural -sciences—a lack that we are trying to supply.</p> - -<p>For city children and their elders, whose eyes are -constantly greeted, not by hills, creeks, ponds, rivers, -woods, and fields, but by sky-aspiring buildings, -railroads elevated on stilts, multiple-decked suspension -bridges, electric power houses, tunnels that -form a second city underground, and the thousand -marvels and splendors of electric illumination at -night, the volumes on physics, mechanics, and -electricity and magnetism have a more immediate -interest and value. What the children learn about -these things in school is far from sufficient to -satisfy their curiosity. They need books at home -to guide their inquiries as well as to answer -them. Only by that means can the diffusion of -scientific knowledge, and the popularization of the -scientific method of getting at the truth and the -meaning of things be thoroughly effected. Science, -as its history plainly demonstrates, progresses most -rapidly only when a great number of minds have -been led to concentrate their powers upon its problems. -Great genius, it is true, rides over obstacles; -yet consider how much further its energies might -have carried it if the obstacles had been more or less -completely removed in advance. Many a young man -has been led to a brilliant career, to the great advantage -of his country and his time, as a result of -the interest awakened in him by the clear statements -of a popularly written book on some branch of -science.</p> - -<p>One of the difficulties that persons unfamiliar with -certain branches of science encounter in reading -about them arises from the excessive use of technical -terms, the lack of simple illustrative examples, and<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_31" id="Page_31">[Pg 31]</a></span> -also, sometimes, a lack of sympathetic appreciation -of the reader's difficulties. It has been a special -object of this series to avoid this trouble. Ordinary -textbooks are prepared for students in school and -are intended to be supplemented by the personal instruction -and guidance of a teacher, standing at the -pupil's elbow, or readily approachable. But the -reader who wishes to inform himself upon some progressive -branch of science after his school days are -over needs to have the teacher included in the book -itself.</p> - -<p>Then, too, there are many persons who have no -comprehension of the great and gratifying power -that a knowledge of some of the elementary principles -and formulas of science bestows upon anybody -who may take the little trouble necessary to -master them, a trouble that does not imply a long -course of scientific study. The "man in the street," -if he possesses these easy-working keys to knowledge, -can verify for himself some of the calculations -of scientists which, if he did not know how they were -done, would always remain for him in the category -of the mysterious achievements of genius.</p> - -<p>To illustrate, let us take a simple example—that -of the Newtonian law of falling bodies. Many persons -would assume on the face of it that there was -nothing in this law that could have a particular interest -for them. But let us see. You will find in -the volume on physics that the law is stated thus: -S = ½gt<sup>2</sup>, i. e., "S equals one-half of the product of -g multiplied by t squared." As you look at it you -would, perhaps, as soon think of picking up a complicated -tool and trying to use it for some ordinary -purpose. Nevertheless, let us try. "S" in the formula -means the space or distance traversed by the -falling body, "g" means the velocity that the force -of gravity imparts in each successive second to the -body, and "t" means the time elapsed during the -fall. What the formula tells us, then, is that if we -observe the time during which the body is falling, -and then square the number of seconds involved -(multiply the number by itself), multiply this square -by "g," which is represented practically everywhere -on the face of the earth by the number 32, and finally -divide the whole by 2, we shall have the distance that -the body fell. This distance will be in feet, since the -number 32, representing "g," is in feet. Now, it -might be a matter of life and death, or at any rate -of mental discomfort against quietude of mind, to -have that rule in memory and to be able to apply it. -For instance, you are on your vacation and stopping -in a strange hotel, where they have put you in the -top story. On looking out of the window you -are dismayed at finding no fire escape, or other appliance -of safety, so that your only resource in case -of fire would be to make a rope out of the bedclothes -and let yourself down with it. But, how far is it to -the ground? How long should the rope be? Are -there sheets enough on your bed to furnish it? The -little formula about falling bodies will answer the -question for you in five minutes. First, you let some -small solid object drop from the window, and note -by your watch, or by counting seconds, which everybody -ought to teach himself to do, how long it takes -to reach the ground. You repeat the experiment -two or three times to make sure. Say the time comes -out three seconds. Very well, now apply the rule: -The square of 3 is 9, and 9 multiplied by 32 gives -288, and dividing by 2 you have 144 feet for the -height! It is to be feared that your bedclothes rope -would not be long enough; you had better send to -the office for something to supplement it. But if the -time of fall should be only 2 seconds, which is more -likely, except in skyscraper hotels, then the calculation -would give you 64 feet for the height, which you -might manage with the aid of the bedclothes.</p> - -<div class="figcenter" style="width: 700px;"><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_32" id="Page_32">[Pg 32]</a></span> -<img src="images/illus043.jpg" width="700" height="396" alt="" /> -<div class="caption"><p>MODELS OF GUTENBERG'S PRINTING PRESSES</p> - -<p>The models show three stages of development, the first of them at the right</p></div> -</div> - -<div class="figcenter" style="width: 474px;"><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_33" id="Page_33">[Pg 33]</a></span> -<img src="images/illus044.jpg" width="474" height="700" alt="" /> -<div class="caption"><p>BENJAMIN FRANKLIN'S PRINTING PRESS</p> - -<p>The original is now in the National Museum at Washington</p></div> -</div> - - - -<p>This is only a single example among many that -could be given to show the usefulness and interest -of many of the formulas of science which the ordinary -reader looks upon as beyond the reach of any -person whose occupation leads him another way. -But cases of equal simplicity could be found in connection -with the subjects of electricity and magnetism, -chemistry, medicine, physiology, etc. Sometimes -it happens that a technical word contains its -own definition and explanation in a nutshell. A -striking instance of this will be found in astronomy, -in the word "light-year." The meaning of this word -stands forth on its face—it evidently expresses the -distance that light travels in the course of one year. -Now, since it is known by means of direct measurement -that light goes at the rate of 186,300 miles per -second, manifestly a light-year must be equivalent -to an enormous number of miles. In fact that number, -roundly stated, is no less than 5,860,000,000,000. -But to what marvelous regions of thought such a -term opens the way! Yonder star is 2,000 light-years -distant from the earth; then its light-waves -now entering your eyes left it when Julius Cæsar -was conquering Gaul, and have been speeding on -their way to the earth ever since! Another star is -found to be 5,000 light-years distant; then the light -by which you now see it started from the star when -Abraham set out from Ur of the Chaldees to settle -in the Holy Land, and has not found a resting place<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_34" id="Page_34">[Pg 34]</a></span> -anywhere in boundless space until just now when -its tiny waves break and expire on the retina of your -eye! Such treasures of knowledge and tonics to -thought are scattered all through the volumes of this -set, the purpose of whose publishers, editors, and -writers has been to accumulate such things in small -compass and in crystal clearness, for the use not -only of those who, after their school days are over, -still wish to keep abreast of the progress of science -in all its branches—as everyone should strive to do -in this most scientific of all ages—but also for those -who have hitherto not had the time, or the opportunity, -or perhaps even the desire, to make themselves -at home in the house of science.</p> - -<p>It may be well to add a few words on the interrelation -of the different subjects treated in the -various volumes of the series. This will suggest to -the reader himself the best order in which to take -up the reading of the books. Naturally he will desire -to obtain both a clear general view of the whole -field of science, and also more detailed acquaintance -with its special parts, the amount of detail depending -upon his particular interest in a subject. For the -first purpose the preferable way would be to run -first over the brief account that follows in this -volume, of the history and development of science in -general, and then to take up the simpler and more -easily grasped branches.</p> - -<p>But it should be firmly kept in mind that, fundamentally, -science is one, having in all its branches -but one aim and object, viz., the ascertainment and -demonstration of the exact truth of things as far -as human capacities are able to reveal and comprehend -such truth, and also but one method of procedure, -which is the method of common sense<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_35" id="Page_35">[Pg 35]</a></span> -trained to the utmost attainable exactitude in observation -and the greatest possible clearness and -precision of reasoning. Science properly so-called -confines itself to things that are subject to observation -by the senses and to verification by repeated -observation and experiment, while its reasonings -and predictions are based entirely upon the unvarying -sequence of the phenomena of nature, as they -display themselves before us.</p> - -<p>Science is just as one and inseparable as life, or -as an organic being, and its divisions no more imply -lack of unity than do the various organs and limbs -of an animal, or a tree, or the different structural -parts of a building. Astronomy is not entirely independent -of geology, nor geology of botany, nor botany -of chemistry, nor any of these of physics, nor -physics of electricity and magnetism, nor the last -of physiology and medicine. Accordingly the question -where to begin in studying science is not one -that can be answered in the same way for everybody. -But the spirit is the same in all the branches.</p> - -<p>Perhaps the best general indication of the order in -which a person who has no predilection for any one -branch of science should take up the various parts -is afforded by their historic development. This was -a result of the natural reaction of man's mind to its -surroundings. The things nearest to him, and most -immediately important, first attracted his attention. -The broadest division would be into the science of -things on the earth's surface; the science of things -above the earth, in the air and the sky; and the -science of things within the earth, concealed from -immediate view.</p> - -<p>If we take these in their order they naturally subdivide -themselves as follows:</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_36" id="Page_36">[Pg 36]</a></span></p> - - -<h3>1—<span class="smcap">Things on the Earth—Explained by</span></h3> - -<div class="hangindent"> - -<p>(a) Anthropology, the Science of Man and His Ancestors, -treating of his nature, origin, development, -division into races and tribes, society, industry, -etc.</p> - -<p>(b) Zoölogy, the Science of Animal Life, treating -of the "lower animals," and of animal life in -general as distinguished from the kingdom of the -plants, although the related science of biology -deals with both plants and animals, its special -subject being the phenomena of life in its widest -sense.</p> - -<p>(c) Botany, the Science of Plant Life.</p> - -<p>(d) Geography, combined with Physiography, the -Science of the Face, or Superficies, of the Earth, -dealing with lands and seas, rivers and mountains, -political divisions, etc. This is covered in our -series by the volume on Physiography.</p> - -<p>(e) In this compartment several branches of science -may be grouped, since they are all the product of -study of things encountered on the earth's surface. -They are:</p></div> - -<p><em>Physics</em>, the Science of the Forces of Nature, -dealing with the laws of the inanimate world -around us, including the phenomena relating to -solid, liquid, and gaseous bodies and substances.</p> - -<p><em>Chemistry</em>, the Science of Matter and Its -Changes, dealing with the atoms and their constituents, -and with the combinations of atoms -into molecules to form the various chemical elements, -etc.</p> - -<p><em>Electricity</em> and <em>Magnetism</em>, the Science of -Power, fundamentally underlying all other -branches, and through its investigation of the<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_37" id="Page_37">[Pg 37]</a></span> -nature of the constituents of atoms—the electrons—going -deeper into the constitution of -things than chemistry itself.

Few studies are -worthy of greater attention; no other department -of knowledge affords more real pleasure. Whoever -clearly understands the history of science possesses -intellectual advantages over those who are ignorant -of the causes that have led to the establishment of -the basic principles of our modern industrial arts -and applied sciences. Standards of comparison are -furnished by the history of science which illuminate -many of the wonders of to-day, develop alertness of -mind, and afford a never-ending train of suggestions -for thought.</p> - -<p>The term science means knowledge. It was derived -from the language of the Romans. It is well -to have a clear idea of the meaning of the word. -Everyone knows that it has to do with certain kinds -of knowledge; few know the particular kinds it embraces. -It does not mean the mere knowledge of a -single fact. It does not mean a knowledge of something -which has to be done. Long before science -was born, our early ancestors observed many isolated -physical, philosophical, and religious facts. -They knew that day followed night, that the stars -moved, that every day the sun progressed over the<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_40" id="Page_40">[Pg 40]</a></span> -arch of the heavens. Such facts did not constitute -science.</p> - -<p>What we know as science began when man commenced -to compare one fact with another, to classify -phenomena, and to arrange his knowledge systematically. -Order, method, system, are basic principles -of science. The best description would, -therefore, appear to be systematized knowledge of -any kind which had been gained and verified by -exact observation and correct thinking. The whole -field of human knowledge is now methodically -formulated and arranged into rational systems. -Modern science may, therefore, be said to embrace -all our exact knowledge. Its province is enormous; -its subdivisions are limitless.</p> - -<p>Science takes no account of knowledge which is -not exact. Many people acquire valuable information -which they profitably use in business, but which -they are unable to communicate or describe to others -because they do not actually understand it.</p> - -<p>Farmers and flower growers often possess important -practical knowledge of facts which are -embraced by the principles of the sciences of agriculture, -botany, and biology. But their practical -knowledge is not true science. It is rather like an -artist's intuitive impulse. It is not the result of -scientific analysis, and there is no tangible, communicable -residuum.</p> - -<p>There could be no science if men did not discover -principles of knowledge which can be communicated -to, and made available for use by -others. Scientific knowledge must be stripped of -all traces of emotionalism and personal convictions. -True science is, therefore, depersonalized -knowledge.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_41" id="Page_41">[Pg 41]</a></span></p> - -<p>The history of science shows how our exact knowledge -has been developed along irregular paths but -with progressive advances. There have been long -periods during which little apparent progress was -accomplished, which have been succeeded by others -made memorable by brilliant discoveries.</p> - -<p>We must constantly bear in mind that many of -the truths generally accepted to-day were doubtful -or novel theories at some previous period. The -history of science shows the enormous mental effort -expended in testing and developing what now appear -to us as commonplace truths.</p> - -<p>Basic principles like those of algebra, geometry, -and the planetary motions were tested during several -thousand years before they were finally accepted -as true.</p> - -<p>The human intellect at the dawn of history was -similar to what it is to-day. But it was not exercised -as we exercise ours because it did not have adequate -materials and opportunities. For the same reason -science made slower progress in early times than -it does now. Progress is cumulative. Each advance -helps that which follows. The functions of a scientist -are to struggle against individual views, and to -provide an explanation of phenomena which may be -accepted as true by other minds. Ascertained facts -must be classified and then sequence and significance -recognized from an unbiased viewpoint.</p> - -<p>The history of science is the written record of -countless experiments, theories, and experiences of -mankind which have been submitted to the tests of -scientific methods.</p> - -<p>While it is true that science embraces all knowledge -its real scope is limited to knowledge which -is reducible to laws and can be embodied in systems.<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_42" id="Page_42">[Pg 42]</a></span> -The human mind unites all knowledge by a single -thread, but we have to chart and map it into larger -and smaller divisions which we define by the methods, -basic concepts, and plans used in developing -them.</p> - -<p>We may now see how it is that the boundaries of -any science are merely approximate. The general -grouping of the sciences is likewise approximate. -The first large group includes the abstract, or formal, -sciences such as mathematics and logic. The -other great group comprises the concrete sciences -dealing with phenomena as contrasted with formal -relationships. Chemistry, biology, physics, psychology, -and sociology belong to the concrete group.</p> - -<p>At the beginning of history man is discovered -observing the great phenomena of Nature and struggling -to learn their laws and to explain them. Religion -is both emotional and intellectual, and through -these qualities it attracted primitive man while he -was attempting to gather light on the riddles of the -world. It was through religion that science was -born.</p> - -<p>Recent researches into primitive beliefs have -shown in a surprising manner the psychological -unity of man. In all parts of the world, in all -periods of history, and under all conditions, the -minds of men, in their natural reactions against the -basic factors of existence, operate in similar ways. -There is a remarkable resemblance in the mental -processes of men. The laws of thought appear to -work automatically in all men. The minds of prehistoric -people worked like those of men to-day. The -impressions of the senses appear to be interpreted -in similar ways by all peoples. Here is the explanation -of the numerous resemblances we find in<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_43" id="Page_43">[Pg 43]</a></span> -national histories, national folk lore, and national -religions. They differ much in innumerable details, -but possess many resemblances in their great fundamental -conceptions. Normal man has always been -religious. Mankind has always assumed definite -attitudes toward the universe and this has resulted -in the universality of religion.</p> - -<p>Early men the world over appear to have been as -eager to learn the keys to the riddles of the universe -as was the boy Longfellow sang about in the following -stanzas:</p> -<div class="center"> -<div class="poem"><div class="stanza"> -<span class="i0">Nature, the old nurse, took<br /></span> -<span class="i0">The child upon her knee,<br /></span> -<span class="i0">Saying: "Here is a story-book<br /></span> -<span class="i0">Thy Father has written for thee."<br /></span> -</div><div class="stanza"> -<span class="i0">"Come wander with me," she said,<br /></span> -<span class="i0">"Into regions yet untrod;<br /></span> -<span class="i0">And read what is still unread<br /></span> -<span class="i0">In the manuscripts of God."<br /></span> -</div><div class="stanza"> -<span class="i0">And he wandered away and away<br /></span> -<span class="i0">With Nature, the dear old nurse,<br /></span> -<span class="i0">Who sang to him night and day<br /></span> -<span class="i0">The rhymes of the universe.<br /></span> -</div><div class="stanza"> -<span class="i0">And whenever the way seemed long,<br /></span> -<span class="i0">Or his heart began to fail,<br /></span> -<span class="i0">She would sing a more wonderful song,<br /></span> -<span class="i0">Or tell a more marvelous tale.<br /></span> -</div></div> -</div> -<p>Modern science has developed from this instinctive -human desire to read Nature's story-book and -understand her marvelous tales.</p> - -<p>Early struggles of mankind taught that human -behavior must be regulated in accordance with -rigid moral laws. This promoted the primitive -social processes which were early concerned with<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_44" id="Page_44">[Pg 44]</a></span> -religious beliefs as well as with magic and medicine. -Two of the earliest beliefs universally accepted were -that we possess souls and that our personality persists -after death. These basic principles of faith -have caused extremely beneficial results to follow -in the development of knowledge.</p> - -<p>Some of the American Indians and other primitive -peoples of to-day still live in the belief that -the heavenly bodies, the sky, sea, and earth, as well -as plants, animals, and men, all belong to a vast -system of all-conscious and interrelated life, in -which the degrees of relationship are distinguished -by the degrees of resemblance.</p> - -<p>Religious beliefs were developed from struggles -to conceive the inconceivable and discover the infinite. -Religions led to studies of mysteries and -ceremonies and rites. Magic developed and this -also had its customs, dogmas, and rites. The difference -between magic and religion was that the -magician was consulted by his personal friends, -whereas the holders of religious beliefs had a common -bond uniting them in one strict form of worship. -Magic was not systematized, while religion -was a unified system of beliefs and practices relative -to sacred things, and chiefly to the regulation -of moral concepts and conduct.</p> - -<p>The intimate association of religion, magic, necromancy, -and science continued until the early Greek -era. There were many temples erected in Greece -and dedicated to Æsculapius, the god of medicine. -Cures were believed to be effected through the valuable -offerings made to the god by patients and their -friends. It was thought that the ways to health -would be indicated to them by the god through -dreams.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_45" id="Page_45">[Pg 45]</a></span></p> - -<p>Recent investigations of the representative ceremonial -rites of the aboriginal peoples of Australasia -and of North and South America have yielded -a remarkably rich fund of information on the -causes and conditions which operated in prehistoric -eras in developing the mental, moral, and physical -sciences.</p> - -<p>Some of the most romantic stories ever developed -by the human intellect are to be found in recent -scientific works dealing with the history and principles -of the tribal customs, ceremonies, and religious -rites of primitive peoples. The early chapters -in the history of man's mental development and the -evolution of science from distant origins in mystic -forces, through magic and necromancy to religion -and philosophy, must give abundant pleasure to all -thoughtful persons by showing how it came that -the high state of civilization now attained was -brought about by slow processes, operating through -immense periods of time and blossoming only during -the past two or three thousand years. A study -of these stories cannot fail to show how intimately -science has been associated with religion, why every -normal individual is essentially religious, and why -the continuation of our civilization, and the very -existence of the human race, are absolutely contingent -upon the recognition of the moral laws, in -the future as in the past. The history of science -establishes the fact that moral sanctions, which require -religious ceremonies to keep them vital, are -the essential bases of human progress.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_46" id="Page_46">[Pg 46]</a></span></p> -<div class="chapter"></div> -<hr class="chap" /> - - - - -<h2>CHAPTER II<br /> - -PRIMITIVE MAN AND EARLY -CIVILIZATIONS</h2> - - -<p class="drop-capw"><span class="smcap">The</span> development of scientific history has not -followed a uniform course.

For this -reason it is advisable to briefly survey the more -recent discoveries about the ancestors of existing -peoples.</p> - -<p>Indo-Malaysia, parts of central Asia, and the valleys -of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in Mesopotamia -are variously credited with having been the -cradle of the human race. It should be understood, -however, that we are only permitted to speak -authoritatively of existing races, because the land -forms of the earth have undergone such remarkable -changes that we can know little definitely about the -earlier periods of human history. For the purposes<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_47" id="Page_47">[Pg 47]</a></span> -of the history of science, while bearing in mind -these qualifying suggestions, we may accept the -statement that man's ancestors originated in proximity -to India.</p> - -<p>It was around the waters of the Persian Gulf -that the earliest known civilizations arose. The -people who founded them came from central Asia. -They had reached a considerable degree of culture, -which suggests that they themselves came from -earlier centers of civilization.</p> - -<p>The study of prehistoric antiquity is termed -archæology. Its principal periods have been divided, -for convenience, into the Stone, Bronze, and Iron -Ages. Each of these is distinguished by the substances -used for tools. In the Stone Age men used -stone spearheads, arrows, and knives, whereas in -the Iron Age similar things were made of iron or -copper.</p> - -<p>The science of mankind is known as Anthropology. -It deals with the innumerable steps in the -evolution of mankind from remote periods, and -with the primitive development of the arts, sciences, -and religion. Yet it is one of the youngest of the -sciences.</p> - -<p>One of its essential teachings is that heredity and -racial predispositions play, and always have played, -more important parts in man's evolution, and in -the development of civilization, than environment -and education.</p> - -<p>Hereditary tendencies, such as the religious, -moral, and æsthetic instincts have been indispensable -in preserving and developing all the races of -mankind.</p> - -<p>Moral discipline has been the chief factor in self-control, -and therefore in civilization. It is because -the moral sense has proved so beneficial to the -human race, and is the most powerful of our instinctive -desires, that mankind always has been and -must be religious. It controls man's knowledge, -desires, and will, and has dominated the race since -our early ancestors began to think.</p> - -<p>When we recognize this fact we can readily see -that anything which tends to oppose the moral or -ethical sanctions, or detract from religious beliefs, -is injurious to civilization and human progress. -The histories of religion, ethics, and æsthetics plainly -develop the rôles which have been played by moral -self-discipline in the protection and development of -mankind, as well as of knowledge and science.</p> - -<p>The moral control of individuals acts also upon -society generally, and upon whole racial and -national groups. The ethical ideals assist each individual -mind to realize its own end and at the -same time tend to influence the tribal and social -mind to attain a common end. This great moral, -instinctive force, which has played such an immensely -valuable part in developing civilization -and science, is known as the human social and -national conscience. It acts both individually and -collectively.</p> - -<p>European races have been divided into classes -corresponding to the prevailing cephalic indices. -The longheads are grouped as the Nordic, or Baltic, -subspecies, because they were formerly numerous -around the Baltic countries. People of this group -are distinguished by tall statures, fair skin and hair, -good physique, and light colored eyes. These peoples -include the Scandinavians, Anglo-Saxon, and certain -important Teutonic groups, as well as Asiatic peoples -who are known as the Aryans.</p> - -<div class="figcenter" style="width: 557px;"><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_48" id="Page_48">[Pg 48]</a></span> -<img src="images/illus061.jpg" width="557" height="700" alt="" /> -<div class="caption"> - -<div class="right">Copyright, Ewing Galloway</div> - -<p>MODEL OF THE SAILING VESSEL "SANTA MARIA," THE -FLAGSHIP OF COLUMBUS</p></div> -</div> - -<div class="figcenter" style="width: 700px;"><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_49" id="Page_49">[Pg 49]</a></span> -<img src="images/illus062a.jpg" width="700" height="503" alt="" /> -<div class="caption"><p>CURTISS NAVY RACER, THE AIRPLANE THAT WON THE -PULITZER RACE OF 1921</p></div> -</div> - -<div class="figcenter" style="width: 700px;"> -<img src="images/illus062b.jpg" width="700" height="454" alt="" /> -<div class="caption"><p>U.

The peoples of this great racial -division originally occupied the countries between -the northern Atlantic coast of Africa and the confines -of the areas of the Nordics around the northern -provinces of France. They spread down the -Mediterranean and over large areas in Asia. Their -skulls are long, but differ from those of the Nordics -in their absolute size. Their stature is lower, and -weaker than that of the Nordics, while their hair, -eyes, and skin are dark or black. The Welsh, the -Moors, and the early Greeks are chiefly classed with -the Mediterranean group. The Carthaginians, -PhÅ“nicians, Egyptians, and Etrurians were members -of it.</p> - -<p>The roundheads comprise the Alpine subspecies. -This is the strongest numerical group to-day. -It is characterized by small round heads, short -bodies, dark hair, and dark eyes. It is of Asiatic -origin and includes the Slavs, modern Greeks, Italians, -Germans, Austrians, Swiss, the pre-Nordic -Irish, French, and Belgians.

The -Nordics began to appear in European history as -agricultural tribes, speaking Aryan languages, like -Celtic and Welsh, who swept down from the north -and pushed the earlier settlers back through their -irresistible arms, which were made of bronze and -later of iron.

They were finally absorbed -and destroyed by the inferior peoples among whom -they dwelled.

The benefits bestowed -upon mankind by the employment of metals -reduced the sharpness of life's struggles, permitted -and instigated reflection, and provided means for -experimentation.</p> - -<p>Modern history begins with the peoples of Mesopotamia. -There were cultured peoples east of the -Tigris and Euphrates, in Persia, India, Mongolia, -Tartary, and China before the founding of -Babylon. But we are more instructed about the -Babylonians and Assyrians than about earlier -Asiatic races.</p> - -<p>The Babylonians and Assyrians appear to have -originated in central Asia and to have migrated to -Arabia about 10,000 <span class="smcap">B. C.</span>, and perhaps earlier. -They were well settled in Arabia before the -Egyptian pyramids and other Semitic memorials -were planned. They brought with them -from the farthest Orient many important contributions -to civilization and culture, and developed -many others.</p> - -<p>These were religious, philosophical and keen commercial -peoples. They shaped the organization of -modern religions. The Babylonians reduced the -world of gods to a single system with classifications -distinguishing between major and minor deities, -and between those of heavenly, or stellar, and -earthly habitats, and those of time and space. They -developed many religious myths of the Creation,<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_52" id="Page_52">[Pg 52]</a></span> -the Flood, Paradise, and others which were subsequently -embraced by other religions.</p> - -<p>Both the Babylonians and Assyrians composed -beautiful hymns, prayers, parables, and religious -tales, and had numerous elaborate religious customs, -rituals, ceremonies, and festivals conducted -by priests, nuns, and acolytes.</p> - -<p>Anu, or Anum, the God of Heaven, was the principal -Babylonian deity, while Ashur was the leading -god of the Assyrians.</p> - -<p>Religious studies and rites occupied a large portion -of the time of these peoples and, consequently, -their temples, monasteries, schools, and other religious -buildings were large and numerous. Their -architecture was elaborately artistic. This was one -of their incentives to scientific invention. They -made important discoveries in all the basic physical -sciences, like chemistry, physics, metallurgy, and -mathematics, to enable them to improve their buildings -and to embellish them with paintings, pictorial -tiles, and fancy metals and textiles. They had excellent -professional men, artists, jurists, bankers, -contractors, and scientists. They were fond of -literature and founded extensive libraries. Music -and musical instruments were very popular with -them. Their cuneiform writings, as disclosed by -numerous beautiful stone and porcelain tablets -which have come down to us, were excellently -done.</p> - -<p>The fragments of literature, laws, and religious -policies that we are acquainted with indicate that -the numerous Babylonian and Assyrian settlements -in each great empire possessed social and political -conditions similar to those of our days. Science and -art were then sufficiently advanced to enable these<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_53" id="Page_53">[Pg 53]</a></span> -ancient people to live as agreeable, moral, and -legally secure lives as those of any subsequent -peoples.</p> - -<p>The Chinese appear to have been making similar -progress to that of the Babylonians about the same -period. It would seem that both these peoples were -in contact with a similar but earlier cultured race -in central Asia. Although the early Chinese were a -religious people, they appear to have been more -philosophical than the Babylonians. This enabled -them to make further progress in the abstract -sciences. In subsequent years they made rapid -strides in the physical sciences, as will be shown -later.</p> - -<p>The Egyptians came into prominence toward the -end of the Babylonian and Assyrian empires, and -for many centuries played a great rôle in developing -civilization. The numerous benefits which they -bestowed upon the world by their researches in -science and art are not fully appreciated.</p> - -<p>Early history pictures two great Asiatic races -struggling for supremacy in India. They were the -Aryans, a fair-skinned people, and the Dravidians, -a colored people. The Aryans succeeded in displacing -the Dravidians in the great plains, upon which -they settled and developed large cities, important -world commerce, and contributed great art -works and scientific and philosophical discoveries -to the world's stores. The Dravidians retired -to the hill country, where their representatives -still live.</p> - -<p>The minds of the various Indian peoples have always -been strongly philosophical. This led them -to the development of numerous religious sects and -philosophical systems, and they made important<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_54" id="Page_54">[Pg 54]</a></span> -mathematical discoveries. While the scientific bent -of the ancient Greeks was of a concrete nature, -which tended toward geometrical proofs for scientific -problems, that of the ancient peoples of India -was toward numerical symbolism and arithmetical -proofs. We find that when the Greeks were developing -geometry the Indians were contributing to -arithmetic and algebra.</p> - -<p>The Chinese closely resembled the ancient Indians -in the philosophical tendency of their minds; -but, owing perhaps to the different conditions under -which they lived, they were more concrete in their -ideas. They also made progress in mathematics -and developed medicine, chemistry, metallurgy, and -many of the sciences which were applied to commercial -and industrial uses. The progress made in -mathematics in China was transmitted to Egypt, -and therefore to Europe, through India. Among -early Chinese discoveries in mathematics were -methods of solving numerical equations and the development -of magic squares and circles, which gave -a great stimulus to studies in geometry and -astronomy.</p> - -<p>The Arabs, Greeks, and Romans took up the discoveries -of the Asiatic peoples, and the Egyptians -enlarged them and passed them forward to us. The -Arabs solved cubic equations by geometrical means, -perfected the basic principles of trigonometry, and -made great advances in mathematics, physics, -chemistry, and astronomy.</p> - -<p>A survey of the early history of science indicates -that from the remotest period man was engaged in -grappling with the great principle of causation. -Progress was necessarily slow at first on account of -the scarcity of tested data. Then it became more<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_55" id="Page_55">[Pg 55]</a></span> -rapid. Soon after the founding of the great city of -Babylon we find that the Babylonians were possessed -of enough knowledge of the arts and sciences to -enable them to become world traders and great industrial -undertakers. They built many cities and -lived highly civilized lives. The history of modern -science may very properly be dated from the building -of Babylon.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_56" id="Page_56">[Pg 56]</a></span></p> -<div class="chapter"></div> -<hr class="chap" /> - - - - -<h2>CHAPTER III<br /> - -PRE-BABYLONIAN SCIENCE</h2> - - -<p class="drop-capw"><span class="smcap">The</span> transcending wonders of the phenomena of -the heavenly bodies attracted the attention of -primitive man at an early period of his intellectual -development. The succession of day and night, the -phases of the moon, comets, meteorites, the eclipses -of sun and moon, the recurrence of the seasons were -observed and recorded. In this way, through long -uncivilized times, many scientific facts were noticed -and handed down by tradition, and probably were -among the first scientific data collected. We have no -means of determining when the primitive science of -astronomy became systematized, although there are -reasons for believing that it was roughly outlined -at a remote date.</p> - -<p>There was a tradition among the Babylonian -priests that their astronomical observations and -records went back to a period of more than 400,000 -years. This statement was believed by the -people of antiquity, and was made to Alexander the -Great during his Indian campaign.</p> - -<p>Astronomy appears to have been developed into -an organized system by the primitive peoples of -central Asia. It was carried to China, India, and -Arabia by learned travelers. There were government -astronomers in China before the year 3000 -<span class="smcap">B. C.</span>, and history records that two of these officials, -named Ho and Hi, were beheaded in the year 2159<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_57" id="Page_57">[Pg 57]</a></span> -<span class="smcap">B. C.</span> for being careless in their work and failing to -issue a timely prediction of a solar eclipse.</p> - -<p>Chinese history also relates that the Emperor, in -2857 <span class="smcap">B. C.</span>, issued an edict recommending the study -of astronomy. From these and other historical references -we learn that nearly 5,000 years ago astronomical -science was not only well developed, but -that its educational value was recognized.</p> - -<p>While attention was being given to the study of -astronomy in China, this science was independently -developed in India. The astronomers of India invented -a different system from that of the Chinese, -and compiled numerous astronomical tables which -were published and widely used as far back as -3102 <span class="smcap">B. C.</span></p> - -<p>These early astronomical studies resulted in the -division of time practically as we know it to-day. -The Babylonians had a week of seven days. The -days bore names of the planets and were divided -into hours and minutes. Days were combined into -months and years. The Babylonian and Chaldean -astronomers, like those of China and India, were -important men and were credited with great -learning.</p> - -<p>The Babylonian month began on the evening -when a new moon was first observed. An adjustment -was made necessary between the months, owing -to the fact that the actual lunar interval is -about twenty-nine and a fraction days. Numerous -astrological observations were made with the view -of obtaining data to facilitate the monthly adjustments. -The taking of these observations was made -easier by maps of the heavens which were recorded -on baked clay tablets and prisms. Similar maps of -the world, with positions fixed by astronomical<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_58" id="Page_58">[Pg 58]</a></span> -observations, were likewise made in Babylonian -times.</p> - -<p>The usefulness of astronomical observations and -predictions led to the belief that they could be employed -with advantage for wider purposes. The -astrologers endeavored to deduce omens and forecast -horoscopes. In order to facilitate their calculations, -the astrologers invented calculating and -time-dividing machines. Tablets from the royal -library at Nineveh indicate that Chaldean astrologers -possessed mechanisms which divided the hours -of the day by mechanical means. These were forerunners -of modern clocks and timepieces.</p> - -<p>These early scientists represented the earth as a -vast circular plain, intersected by high mountain -ranges and surrounded by a large river, with other -mountain chains which lost themselves in an infinite -ocean. The heavenly vault was believed to be supported -by the highest peaks of the outlying mountains. -It was owing to the peculiar nature of this -cosmogony that the pre-Babylonians and Babylonians -were unable to develop a satisfactory mechanical -view of the world. The world had to wait -for an adequate mechanical theory before general -knowledge could be advanced, so that men like -Newton and Laplace could correct the errors of -early theories and furnish a sound working -hypothesis.</p> - -<p>The advancement of science requires methodical -observations and the use of the highest powers of -the imagination. It is thinking in picture-like figures -that supplies primitive reasoning. While pure -reasoning deals with abstract, verbal images, the -more concrete picture-thinking deals with object-images. -The differences between thinkers and<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_59" id="Page_59">[Pg 59]</a></span> -dreamers is chiefly in the way their minds act. But -even thinkers are supplied with thought material -by the elementary mental operation of picture-thought, -dreams, or dream-thinking. Science needs -the active use of the imagination to anticipate experience -and suggest the issues of a process in -course of action. Most great inventions, and probably -all primitive inventions, were stimulated by -imagination. But the imagination, unless skillfully -directed, is liable to numerous errors. That is why -in all ages there has been much error in connection -with knowledge. There could, however, be little or -no progress without imaginative work. It is only -within very recent years that the modern sciences -have been stripped of much absurd matter derived -from crude imaginative work. When we bear this -in mind, we have the key to the part played by -ancient myths, magic, and ceremonies in developing -civilization.</p> - -<p>The term magic is derived from the Persian term -for priest. The magi, or priests of Zoroaster, their -religion, learning, and occult practices had important -world-wide effects just before the Babylonian -era. Magic is a pioneer of religion, philosophy, and -science.</p> - -<p>Medicine was benefited, in some ways, by the -priests seeking means for dealing with the work of -the spirits of evil. Chemistry and metallurgy were -also advanced, and new realms of knowledge were -opened even by magicians.</p> - -<p>The magic of the Babylonians survived their empire. -It was handed over to the Egyptians and contemporary -peoples, and was in turn passed down to -the magicians and alchemists of the Middle Ages, -and to the dramatists, poets, and novelists of all ages.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_60" id="Page_60">[Pg 60]</a></span></p> - -<p>The accumulation of scientific facts was greatly -facilitated by the improvements made by the -Babylonians in the manufacture of earthenware -tablets, scrolls, and prisms. Beautifully drawn -cuneiform picture signs recorded on these all the -knowledge of the day. These stonelike records -were filed away in many monasteries and libraries. -Subsequently, letters were invented, alphabets were -formed, and writing displaced the hieroglyphic -symbols.</p> - -<p>The invention of alphabets made reading easier. -This resulted in giving an impetus to education -which has had cumulative effects right down -through the ages.</p> - -<p>We are now in a position to realize why scientific -discoveries were made very slowly, and at long -intervals apart, in early times. Facts had to be -accumulated, studied, grouped, and compared. Accounts -of these studies had to be pictured and stored -away for future use. Only exceptionally learned -men did this. But when alphabets were invented -and education increased, numerous minds became -active and there was a great extension of thought, -experimentation, and philosophical contemplation. -This was followed by the establishment of new religious -houses, schools, and philosophical academies, -at all of which the ablest men of the day emulated -the scholars in formulating theories and making -inventions.</p> - -<p>Soon after the perfecting of cuneiform writing -in Babylon, characters were devised for representing -numbers. A vertical, arrowlike wedge represented -the figure 1, while a horizontal wedge stood -for 10. A vertical and horizontal wedge, placed together, -signified 100. Other arrangements of these<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_61" id="Page_61">[Pg 61]</a></span> -characters meant that they were to be multiplied, -subtracted, divided, or added together. In this -simple manner all kinds of arithmetical results -could be recorded.</p> - -<p>The Babylonian mathematicians were familiar -with decimals, integers, and fractions, and their -tables and records of astronomical and engineering -calculations reveal a remarkably high degree of -mathematical ability, indicating that peoples who -preceded us by several thousands of years were -familiar with the more important calculations requisite -in trade and industry as well as for astrological -computations.</p> - -<p>Babylon was a great world metropolis. It occupied -a position similar to that occupied by London -to-day. Its merchants were engaged in world-wide -commercial operations which needed good systems -of bookkeeping and accountancy. These, in turn, -presupposed a highly developed arithmetical system. -Practically all the arithmetical calculations -used in commerce to-day were employed by them. -Their accountants, like those of China to-day, used -the abacus, or calculating machine.</p> - -<p>A lucid illustration of the accuracy of ancient calculations, -the efficiency of their reports, and the -confidence with which they executed intellectual -duties is afforded by the following translation of a -Babylonian astronomer's official report:</p> - -<p>"To the King, my lord, thy faithful servant, -Mar-Istar.</p> - -<div class="blockquot"> - -<p>"...

In this work they -were assisted by the Babylonians.</p> - -<p>The Indians, like the Chinese and Babylonians, -solved problems in interest, discounts, partnership, -the summation of arithmetical and geometrical -series, and determined number changes in combinations -and permutations with ease.

Many peoples have lived and ruled -there and passed on before incoming tides of new -and more vigorous peoples. Each race, undoubtedly, -during its residence in Egypt contributed to the general -fund of Egyptian knowledge and customs and -assisted in the development of science.</p> - -<p>The tombs of Thebes have given us bodies of -ancient Egyptians of more than six thousand years -ago. At that time the people were characterized by -the Grecian type of profile. They resembled the -contemporary active peoples in India and Arabia -and did not differ much from the Egyptians of our -day. The incoming streams of people who settled -in the Nile valley, both Asiatic and negroid, changed -the appearance of the Egyptians at different times -by intermarriage, but when their vigor waned and -they were crowded out by other peoples, the Egyptians -assumed their regular Semitic characteristics.</p> - -<p>Egyptian history really begins with the old kingdom -dynasties, about ten thousand years ago. The -tombs of Abydos have furnished material for accounts -of this early period. There were eight powerful -kings in the first dynasty and all of them contributed -to the advancement of civilization. Abydos, -and later Memphis, were their principal cities. They -ruled in great luxury and were patrons of the arts -and sciences. The art works, sculptures, and carvings -in ivory and ebony of this era speak in eloquent -terms of the taste and high mental powers of the -people. Modern museums are well supplied with -relics of those times, which illustrate the degree -of civilization attained by the Egyptians at the be<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_66" id="Page_66">[Pg 66]</a></span>ginning -of their history better than any written -account.</p> - -<p>The early Egyptians adopted the sciences, arts -and customs of the Babylonians. With these as a -basis the priests and learned men experimented and -made many independent researches and discoveries.</p> - -<p>The pyramids, erected near Cairo 3000 <span class="smcap">B. C.</span>, -indicate the high degree of culture which the early -Egyptians had attained. These renowned monuments -to the kings were scientifically designed and -constructed to exist for all time. In order to contribute -to their usefulness, they were planned so as -to exhibit correct geometrical forms and indicate -the cardinal points of the compass and the positions -of certain astronomical bodies. The details of their -construction disclosed much mathematical, geometrical -and physical knowledge, and their actual building -called for not only an all-around mechanical -skill but a high degree of engineering ability. They -were constructed of various materials. Some large -granite blocks were used in the outside walls and -these were brought from the upper Nile. They were -towed down the river on barges and were lifted into -the positions in which they are found to-day. Various -mortars and mortar mixtures were employed in -binding the brickwork and masonry. These called -for a good knowledge of chemistry and physics. The -arches and sloping walls of some of the larger pyramids -show how well the architects and engineers of -the day knew their professions. With similar means -in their possession, the best professional men of the -present day would find it difficult to get such splendid -results.</p> - -<p>In the past few years, lapidaries and gem-workers -have learned to cut stones and gems with steel <span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_67" id="Page_67">[Pg 67]</a></span>disk-wheels, -the cutting edges of which are furnished -with carborundum or emery powder or insets of diamonds. -The pyramid builders knew this method of -sawing and cutting stones. They actually employed -bronze saws set with diamonds to cut the huge -blocks of granite, syenite, diorite, and basalt used -in the construction of the pyramids. They also set -the cutting ends of their rock drills with diamonds, -and bored rocks as we do to-day with diamond core -drills. The art of making these tools was afterward -lost. Only within the past half-century have -mechanical rock saws and diamond drills been reinvented. -This brilliantly indicates the inventive -ability of the engineers at the dawn of Egypt's history. -The builders of the splendid monument of -Rameses II in the Memnonium, at Thebes, which -weighs 887 long tons, transported the huge stone by -land from the quarries at E'Sooan, a distance of -138 miles. Such tasks appear never to have deterred -early Egyptian engineers and architects. They -were so sure of their ability to carry their great -operations to satisfactory completion that they -never hesitated in agreeing to the severest penalties -for nonfulfillment of contract. Their cranes, levers, -wedges, rock drills, pumps, air blowers and compressors, -and building tools all showed how well -mastered was their knowledge.</p> - -<p>Their quarrying methods were similar to those -used in the best practice to-day. When huge blocks -and slabs of stone were needed the required dimensions -were marked on the rock and channeled out. -Metal wedges were forced into the channels and -struck at once by a large number of hammers. The -constant vibration, in time, broke off the stone with -clean-cut surfaces. When these were to be carved<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_68" id="Page_68">[Pg 68]</a></span> -into statuary or ornamental shapes it was often -done at the quarries, so as to reduce transportation -difficulties. Water transportation was used when -possible. When the stone had to be moved over the -desert sands it was lifted by cranes and set on sleds -drawn by men or animals, or driven forward by -levers, just as heavy steel machinery is moved by -modern engineers.</p> - -<p>The principle of the siphon was known to the -Egyptians at an early period. It was employed daily -in many homes for supplying water and for drawing -off wine from barrels and tanks into domestic utensils. -Its principal use, however, was in civil engineering -works. Siphons were constructed on a large -scale for furnishing water to villages, draining land -for farming, and for irrigation purposes. They -were built, in many known instances, for carrying -large quantities of water, in high lifts, over hills.</p> - -<p>Herodotus tells us that the science of geometry -was discovered by the Egyptians as a result of the -necessity for making annual surveys of the farming -lands in the Nile valley.</p> - -<p>When geometry was established as a practical -science, land and astronomical surveying were simplified -and many branches of mathematics were enlarged. -The science of marine surveying was also -developed and this led to a great improvement in -map-making and in geography, in which the Egyptians -became famous.</p> - -<p>The skill attained by the Egyptians in land surveying -required accurate surveying instruments. -These were invented at an early period. The Greeks -claim the invention of the theodolite and similar instruments, -but Egyptian history shows that gnomons, -surveying compasses, and levels were used<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_69" id="Page_69">[Pg 69]</a></span> -by Egyptian surveyors long before the Greeks began -to study the learning of Egypt.</p> - -<p>Astronomical science made great progress in -Egypt. The theory attributing to the sun the central -place in our planetary system, now called the Copernican -theory, was known and used in Egypt. They -were familiar with the obliquity of the ecliptic, and -knew that the Milky Way was an aggregation of -numerous stars of various sizes. They understood -that moonlight is simply the reflected light of the -sun. The movements of comets, the positions of the -principal stars and stellar constellations and other -astronomical phenomena were studied and charted -on astronomical maps or recorded and forecasted -in astronomical tables.</p> - -<p>The discoveries made by the Greek scientists -naturally stimulated philosophical thought, which -in turn reacted upon scientific experimentation and -led to a broadening of the scope of general research -work. We are dependent upon the pictorial records -of early Egyptian times for descriptions of the instruments -and machinery employed and these are -not always clear. They indicate, however, that the -Egyptians quickly learned the sciences developed by -the Babylonians and other Oriental peoples and -improved them. Their knowledge of astronomy, -mathematics, geometry, chemistry, physics, medicine, -and agriculture was extensive. The priests -and learned men taught the pure sciences and -constantly experimented; the engineers, architects, -surveyors, and mechanics applied the sciences to -the arts.</p> - -<p>In one of the records of an early dynasty the -father of a student sailing up the Nile to begin his -studies in one of the leading scientific schools gave<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_70" id="Page_70">[Pg 70]</a></span> -this advice: "Put thy heart into learning and love -knowledge like a mother, for there is nothing that -is so precious as learning."</p> - -<p>The Mesopotamian peoples, as we saw in the last -chapter, considered the stars and principal heavenly -bodies as deities. The Egyptians did not do this, -although they looked upon the heavens as the abode -of all pious souls. Their astronomical knowledge at -the time of the establishment of the New Empire at -Thebes, about the year 1320 <span class="smcap">B. C.</span>, was remarkably -extensive.</p> - -<p>The Egyptians divided time in accordance with -the course of the sun into periods of 365¼ days, -and these were divided in accordance with the course -of the moon into periods of about 29½ days. Thus -the basis of the system of years and months used by -us was perfectly understood by the Egyptians.</p> - -<p>The science of medicine was developed at a very -early period in Egyptian history. The various divisions -of physicians, surgeons, pharmaceutists, veterinarians, -and dentists organized by the Babylonians -were retained by the Egyptians. Many names of -distinguished practitioners have been handed down. -Nevertheless, their anatomical knowledge remained -poor, and there were many superstitious practices -connected with medicine. The various medical -manuals which have been preserved show that the -Egyptian physicians studied diagnosis with modern -thoroughness. They were aware that an exact -knowledge of each disease, obtainable only by a complete -study of the symptoms, was necessary before -a correct treatment could be prescribed. When the -magic and the superstitious dressings are abstracted -from Egyptian medical works and prescriptions, we -find that the broad principles were sound and effi<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_71" id="Page_71">[Pg 71]</a></span>cient. -They were developed along lines similar to -those of modern times.</p> - -<p>Mathematics attracted much attention in Egypt. -The learning of Oriental countries on this subject -was readily absorbed by the Egyptians. The Greek -historians were so surprised at the efficiency of -the Egyptians in this branch of knowledge that they -almost unanimously asserted that the mathematical -sciences originated in Egypt.</p> - -<p>The pyramid base lines run in the direction of the -four points of the compass, and were determined by -correct astronomical methods. The astronomers and -surveyors were skilled in trigonometry. Fractions -were known to the Egyptians, who were taught in -the schools of Babylon. The modern x, representing -an unknown factor, was known to the Egyptians -under the name of "hau."</p> - -<p>Quadratic equations were employed by them. The -problem of finding x and y, when x<sup>2</sup> + y<sup>2</sup> = 100 and -x:y = 1:¾, one of the earliest problems of this character -known, was found in a papyrus at Kahun. The -problem was stated as follows: "A given surface -of, say, 100 units of area, shall be represented as the -sum of two squares, whose sides are to each other -as 1:¾."</p> - -<p>The papyrus gave the working out of the solution. -Many similar problems are given in mathematical -works and papyri. They show the proficiency in -mathematics that Egyptian scientists had attained -at a remote period. But their methods of expressing -mathematical problems were crude and, consequently, -involved much tedious labor in finding solutions. -There can be little doubt that if effective -mathematical symbols had been devised the abstract -sciences would have made even greater progress<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_72" id="Page_72">[Pg 72]</a></span> -than they did in early Egypt. When we study the -complicated solutions of algebraic problems made -by the Egyptians, owing to the lack of simple -symbols, we can appreciate how greatly modern -mathematical science is benefited by the devices -now employed for expressing quantities, variations, -and operations.</p> - -<p>The Egyptians were expert in applying the discoveries -of science to the arts. The Nile made their -country potentially rich in agriculture, and they -devoted much attention to inventing such things as -single and double plows, rakes, and other agricultural -machines, many of which were drawn by oxen, -donkeys, and other animals. Reaping was done with -sickles and scythes. Not only was irrigation understood -and widely practiced, but the importance of -fertilization was recognized.</p> - -<p>The farmers understood the preservation of meat, -vegetables, and foodstuffs generally, by drying or -pickling. They also brewed beer and made wines, -vegetable and seed oils, and alcohol. The selection -of breeding animals and the principles of variation -were understood and employed for developing particular -breeds of cattle and farm stocks.</p> - -<p>The papyrus reed grew luxuriantly in Egypt and -this resulted in the discovery of paper making, weaving, -thread making and many textile methods. These -industries led to the invention of looms, rope and -twine twisting appliances, flax weaving and other -machinery. The linens and cloths made by these -machines have never been excelled.</p> - -<p>Dyeing was developed with the textile industries. -As the skies of Egypt are bright, the people in all -ages have had a fondness for brilliant colors. The -call for bright textile colors led to a considerable<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_73" id="Page_73">[Pg 73]</a></span> -development in the chemistry of dyes and dyeing. -Vegetable and mineral dyes were used. Dyes were -not always applied to the whole pieces of goods, but -stenciling and other methods of patterning were -used. The highly organized artistic skill of the -people demanded art-designed textiles and the -manufacturers responded with beautiful and rich -materials.</p> - -<p>The fur and feather industries became important -at an early period. The Egyptians were fond of -beautiful ornamental skins like those of the panther -or gazelle. Such skins were manufactured into numerous -domestic articles, made into clothing or used -as rugs, mats, and seat coverings.</p> - -<p>Skins not valuable for art purposes were sent to -the tanners to be converted into various kinds of -leather. Tanning was highly developed, and the -tanners turned out leathers which are to-day admired -for their excellence. The tanners carried on -their industries by chemical processes similar to -those in use to-day.</p> - -<p>The scarcity of wood in Egypt led to the invention -of various substitutes. One common substitute was -a kind of <i lang="fr">papier mâché</i>. This was manufactured out -of linen, wood or vegetable pulp and various kinds -of paste. When it was used for art work the molded -forms were covered with lacquer or various kinds -of stucco. Very beautiful objects were manufactured -from these substances, which indicate that -the artists possessed a wide practical knowledge of -physical and chemical principles.</p> - -<p>Chemical knowledge was also well shown in their -manufacture of glass. They excelled in this industry. -All kinds of glass were made and decorated -by staining and glazing. The glassmakers were able<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_74" id="Page_74">[Pg 74]</a></span> -to imitate precious stones in glass and their glass-bead -and enamel work has never been excelled. -Some modern chemists express the opinion that -glass making was carried to a greater degree of perfection -in Egypt than any modern nation has -attained.</p> - -<p>Egyptian porcelains were also finely executed. -These were enameled, stained, and decorated in -numerous ways. The colors, glazes, and art mediums -employed by the artists in pottery and porcelain -necessitated a wide chemical knowledge. Some -of the pigments employed both in glass and porcelain -ornamentation were made from metals. Their -use required a knowledge of metallurgy. Metals -like lead, nickel, manganese required fluxing and refining -before they could be secured in a state sufficiently -pure to be used as bases for colors. Not -only did the artists know the value of many metallic -oxides, but they understood how to secure the tints -resulting from blending different oxides, and by -acting upon metals with acids, just as they acted -upon vegetable and metallic dyes with acids to get -rare tones in linen dyeing.</p> - -<p>Mordants were employed in dyeing cloths and these -were acted upon by acids and alkalies to produce -various colors. We are dependent upon the relics -which have been preserved for our knowledge of the -chemical and physical learning of the Egyptians. -No chemical books of theirs have come down -to us, and inferences must be drawn from the -results seen.</p> - -<p>In carrying out metallurgical operations, the -Egyptians employed small blast furnaces and melting -pots. Air was compressed by bellows and conducted -into molten substances by pipes.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_75" id="Page_75">[Pg 75]</a></span></p> - -<p>The methods of metal working, melting, rolling, -forging, soldering, annealing, and chasing were similar -to common methods in use in modern times.</p> - -<p>The Egyptians were a practical people. They -made wonderful progress in the industrial arts and -learned enough of scientific principles to enable them -to deal with much success with the mechanical, -agricultural, astronomical, medicinal, and chemical -problems encountered. But, like the Babylonians, -Assyrians and other Oriental peoples, the Egyptians -did not systematize their sciences. Their investigations -were always carried out with practical objects -in view, and when the objects were attained -the experiments ceased. They never discovered a -true scientific method. That was left to be done by -another people who were long students of Egyptian -science and who, taking all the learning of Egypt, -worked out from it, as a basis, the principal sciences -as we have them to-day. The Greeks took the torch -of scientific progress from the Egyptians, organized -learning, and passed it on to the Romans and other -peoples in sound, effective and augmented forms.</p> - -<p>The Greeks idealized and systematized scientific -principles, whereas the Egyptians and earlier peoples -rested content with the results they could -obtain by their practical efforts. We will find that, -throughout the history of science, progress has -always been made by similar reactions between -peoples possessing the one a practical, the other a -philosophical genius.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_76" id="Page_76">[Pg 76]</a></span></p> -<div class="chapter"></div> -<hr class="chap" /> - - - - -<h2>CHAPTER V<br /> - -FOUNDING OF SYSTEMATIC SCIENCE -IN GREECE</h2> - - -<p class="drop-capw"><span class="smcap">The</span> world is indebted to the Greeks as much for -science as for art and literature. The idealistic -spirit of ancient Greece invested scientists as well -as poets, artists, and thinkers generally. But the -Greek scientists were students in the great schools -of Egypt and brought much of their knowledge from -that country. The greatest contributions made by -Greece were in the nature of methods and analysis. -They were led to these by the tendencies of the Greek -mind to abstract thought and philosophical investigations. -They soon recognized that science is -knowledge gained by certain methods of abstraction. -Data had to be systematically collected, digested, -classified, and impartially studied. The results of -such studies had to be assembled and expressed in -the most useful forms. Progress had to be made by -the trial and error method and the results of experiments -tested by synthesis as well as analysis; by -induction as well as deduction.</p> - -<p>The Ionian philosophers were the first to break -away from the mythological traditions surrounding -the principles of Egyptian and Asiatic science. -Thales of Miletus about the year 580 <span class="smcap">B. C.</span> taught -that there is an essence, force, or soul in all things. -This universal principle of activity is superhuman.<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_77" id="Page_77">[Pg 77]</a></span> -Seeking to find of what the world is made, he arrived -at the idea that water, or moisture, is the basic element. -All matter, he said, is water in various forms -and combinations. Here we see scientific knowledge -sought with a definite aim and with unity of purpose. -None of the earlier peoples had ever attempted -to approach knowledge in this logical and -fruitful manner.</p> - -<p>When the learned Babylonians were asked what -the earth was they simply said: "When the world -was created, Marduk, the sun god, took Tiamat, or -Chaos, and divided her. The sky was formed above -and the earth below." And the Egyptians answered -the question in a similar way by saying: "When -the world was created, Shu tore the goddess Nuit -from the arms of Keb, and now she hangs above him -and he is the earth."</p> - -<p>It was this kind of statement that Thales cast -aside. He sought for more concrete definitions. -Customary beliefs were not acceptable to him; his -knowledge must be based on reason. Here we see -the dawn of a new scientific spirit and the beginning -of a new method of investigating knowledge. The -world was introduced to a new field of intellectual -activities.</p> - -<p>The theory of Thales was studied by other -Greek philosophers. But Anaximander, a friend -of Thales, rejected it, and in its place suggested -that there is one eternal, indestructible substance -which constitutes the basis of matter. This was -not water but an infinite eternal motion. Water is -subjected to extremes of temperature. Under such -conditions nothing could have been stable enough -to constitute matter. A primary substance must be -free from warring or antagonistic elements.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_78" id="Page_78">[Pg 78]</a></span></p> - -<p>The world arose, said Anaximander, through the -evolution of a substance subjected to temperature -changes which developed from the eternal, boundless, -basic element. A sphere of flame arose from -this, as from an explosion, and assumed a rounded -form with concentric divisions. As these rings became -detached, the sun, moon, stars, and other -heavenly bodies and the earth were formed. Aristotle -tells us that, according to Anaximander's theory, -the terrestrial region was at first moist; and, -as the moisture was dried up by the sun, the portion -that was evaporated produced the winds and the -turnings of the sun and moon, the remaining portion -becoming the sea. In time the sea, Anaximander -held, would dry up. The heat, or fire, of the world -would burn the whole of the cold moist element. -Then the world would become a mixture of heat and -cold like the boundless, primary element surrounding -it, and by which it would be absorbed.</p> - -<p>This theory of matter and the evolution of the -world marks a notable advance over any previous -scientific theory. It was well developed by numerous -teachers of the Milesian philosophical school and has -played a great rôle in intellectual history.</p> - -<p>The daring nature of some of Anaximander's explanations -of earthly organisms may be realized -from a sketch of his views on the evolution of animals. -He taught that living creatures arose from -the moist element as it was evaporated by the sun. -Man at first resembled a fish. All animals were developed -in the moisture wrapped in a protecting -cover or bark. As they advanced in age, they came -out into a drier atmosphere and discarded their protective -coats. Man was not an original creation, but -resulted from the fusion of other species. Anaxi<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_79" id="Page_79">[Pg 79]</a></span>mander's -reason for this statement was that the -period of infancy of the human being is so long that -had he been born that way originally he could not -have survived. There must have been a slow development -from ancient ancestors. This may be -regarded as an anticipation of the Darwinian theory. -Thus man's thoughts in succeeding ages have a -rhythmic swing.</p> - -<p>Anaximenes rejected some of Anaximander's -ideas and furnished new ones to take their places. -He was not so daring a thinker as his predecessor, -and his theory of the world was not as interesting -as Anaximander's. Many of his teachings, however, -are accepted as sound to-day.</p> - -<p>Anaximenes contended that the basic element was -not boundless, but determinate. Innumerable substances -are derivable from it and, just as our soul, -like an atmosphere, holds us together, so do breath -and air encompass the whole world. Air is always -in motion, otherwise so many changes could not be -made by it. It differs in various substances in -virtue of its rarefaction and condensation.</p> - -<p>The perpetual changes taking place in the world -owing to the instability of matter were emphasized -by Heraclitus. He taught that there is nothing immutable -in the world process excepting the law or -principle which governs it.</p> - -<p>Cosmological speculations were not the only ones -attracting the attention of the Greek scientists. -Pythagoras, for example, founded a philosophical -college devoted to mathematical studies which resulted -in the development of arithmetic to points -beyond the requirements of commerce. He made -arithmetic the basis of a profound philosophical -system.</p> - -<p>Pythagoras studied science in Egypt and first became -familiar with Egyptian and Babylonian mathematics -and geometry. He also studied the Milesian -cosmological philosophy. On his return to Greece -from his foreign studies he sought to discover a -principle of homogeneity in the universe more -acceptable than any suggested by the earlier -philosophers. He had noticed numerous relationships -between numbers and natural phenomena, -and believed that the true basis of philosophy -was to be found in numbers. In seeking data -to sustain this thesis, he discovered harmonic progression. -His experiments showed that when harp -strings of equal length were stretched by weights -having the proportion of ½:â…”:¾, they produced -harmonic intervals of an octave, a fifth -and a fourth apart. Since he saw that harmony -of sounds depended upon proportion he concluded -that order and beauty in the world originate in -numbers. There are seven intervals in a musical -scale, and seven planets sweeping the heavens. -Seven must, therefore, be a basic number. This -suggested to him his ideas regarding the harmony -of the spheres.</p> - -<p>Pythagoras and his students found that the sum -of a series of odd numbers from 1 to 2n+1 was -always a complete square. When even numbers are -added to the above series we get 2, 6, 12, 20, -etc., in which every member can be broken -into two factors differing from each other by -unity. Thus 6 = 2.3, 12 = 3.4, 20 = 4.5, etc. -Such numbers were called heteromecic. Numbers -like n(n+1)/2 were called triangular. A large number -of other arithmetical relations were found and -given distinctive names. The Pythagoreans were -also familiar with the principles of arithmetical, -geometrical, harmonic, and musical proportion.</p> - -<div class="figcenter" style="width: 700px;"><p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_80" id="Page_80">[Pg 80]</a></span></p> - -<img src="images/illus097.jpg" width="700" height="344" alt="" /> -<div class="caption"><p>DE WITT CLINTON TRAIN OF 1831 BESIDE A MODERN LOCOMOTIVE</p></div> -</div> - -<div class="figcenter" style="width: 700px;"><p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_81" id="Page_81">[Pg 81]</a></span></p> - -<img src="images/illus098a.jpg" width="700" height="464" alt="" /> -<div class="caption"><p>LOCOMOTIVE OF THE 1870 PERIOD STILL IN USE IN THE -OZARKS</p></div> -</div> - -<div class="figcenter" style="width: 700px;"> -<img src="images/illus098b.jpg" width="700" height="518" alt="" /> -<div class="caption"><p>"JOHN BULL," A LOCOMOTIVE BROUGHT FROM ENGLAND -AND PUT INTO SERVICE IN AMERICA IN 1831</p></div> -</div> - -<p>Pythagoras made similar advances in geometry. -He believed that each arithmetical fact had an analogue -in geometry, and each geometrical fact a counterpart -in arithmetic.

He outlined the -functions of the principal organs of the body, discovered -the optic nerve, the difference between the -arterial and nervous systems, the Eustachian tube, -the two divisions of the brain, the nerves connecting -the brain with the organs of sense and with the -spinal column. These advances placed the medical<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_83" id="Page_83">[Pg 83]</a></span> -sciences on a logical basis similar to that of the -physical, mathematical, and astronomical sciences. -This first great anatomist and physiologist invented -the practice of anatomical dissection and surgical -exploration, and advanced the practice of medicine -to a higher degree of usefulness.</p> - -<p>After the Greeks had satisfied themselves that -they possessed a cosmological theory which answered -the demands of reason they turned their -investigations to the question of how matter was -changed into its innumerable forms. Empedocles -had taught that when the primary elements, earth, -air, fire, and water, were mixed in variable proportions -they yielded different kinds of matter. Leucippus, -Democritus, Anaxagoras, and others studied -the subject more carefully and developed a novel -theory. When matter is divided as far as possible -do the ratios of the constituents remain the same? -This problem attracted their attention. They also -asked themselves whether there was not a simpler -conception to explain the basic state of matter. -When they began their inquiries, the qualities of -matter were believed to reflect their essences. For -example, the sweetness of honey and the color of the -sky were real things which should be studied in -themselves apart from honey and the sky. Democritus -thought, however, that such changes of color -as the sky undergoes at dawn and sunset would not -take place if the colors were real elementary things. -While meditating on this the thought arose in their -mind: "If we assume matter to be composed of an -infinite number of minutest particles or atoms, could -we not explain the changes in matter by changes in -atomic quantities and orders?" This line of thought -resulted in the development of the atomic theory<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_84" id="Page_84">[Pg 84]</a></span> -and the origin of the philosophic school of the -atomists.</p> - -<p>According to Leucippus some of the atoms darting -about in the universe collide and thus give rise to -new substances. He also believed that the atoms -followed whirling or circular paths and that such -rotary motions drew in neighboring atoms, and that -as these movements continued indefinitely within -the atoms the constituents were being constantly rearranged, -the lighter elements being grouped around -the periphery; the heavier ones around the center. -These changes were due to pressure and impact. -These conceptions about atoms were carried into -cosmological discussions and it was taught that there -are various worlds and planets within the boundless -universe, each one moving freely according to physical -laws, unless fractured by collision with another.</p> - -<p>Zeno challenged these doctrines because of the -importance attached to the whirling motion. He -attempted to show that such atomic motions are impossible. -His proofs of the impossibility of atomic -motion were designed with the object of sustaining -his own theory of an ultimate principle of unity. -His mental trend was toward negation. Whenever -his rival Parmenides argued affirmatively regarding -a scientific principle, Zeno would invariably maintain -the negative side of the question.</p> - -<p>Zeno's first proof of the impossibility of motion -referred to the impossibility of passing through a -fixed space. He showed that by dividing a line into -an infinite number of parts an infinite number of -points would be obtained and these permitted no -beginning of motion.</p> - -<p>His second proof tried to show the impossibility -of passing through space having movable bound<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_85" id="Page_85">[Pg 85]</a></span>aries. -The story of Achilles and the tortoise illustrates -this. A pursuer in a race at every interval -must reach a point from which the pursued starts -simultaneously. But the latter is always in advance.</p> - -<p>The third, or "resting arrow," argument showed -that a moving arrow is at every instant in some one -point of its track. Its movement at such instant is -then equal to zero. Its track is a group of zeros. No -magnitude could be framed from these.</p> - -<p>Zeno also anticipated much later philosophical -discussions, like Einstein's, relating to the relativity -of motion. He took for an example a moving wagon. -Its movement would appear different to observers -on other moving bodies going in various directions. -They would see changes in rates of speed as well as -in direction.</p> - -<p>Protagoras, at a subsequent date, developed this -idea of relativity and showed that things are as they -appear to each individual at the moment they are -perceived. He summarized his teaching in the -aphorism: Man is the measure of all things.</p> - -<p>The Skeptics, 200 years later, developed the Protagorean -theory of relativity, and by a series of -arguments attempted to prove that perceptions -change not only with the different species of animate -beings, but with many conditions and circumstances. -It was also shown that not only man's perceptions -are subject to changes, but also his opinions following -from his perceptions. Another school taught -that to every opinion the opposite can be opposed -with equally good reasons.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_86" id="Page_86">[Pg 86]</a></span></p> -<div class="chapter"></div> -<hr class="chap" /> - - - - -<h2>CHAPTER VI<br /> - -GOLDEN AGE OF GREEK SCIENCES</h2> - - -<p class="drop-capw"><span class="smcap">Science</span> had made a great advance as a result -of the researches and theories of the atomists. -A consistent mechanical theory of matter and the -universe had been set forth. Science and philosophy -were stripped of many of the old superstitions that -had clung to them. The leading theories invented -were based on logical principles. While these -changes were being worked out, numerous inventions -of scientific instruments and apparatus were -made and systematic methods of studying science -were organized. These furnished the means for -still greater progress.</p> - -<p>The apparent completeness of the mechanical -theory of the universe satisfied the inquiring intellect. -The excitement caused by the scientific discussions -and discoveries from the time of Heraclitus -subsided. But after a short intervening period, -when public attention had been largely centered on -practical affairs, there was a reaction against -science. When scientific principles were quoted a -tendency was shown to question their validity and -usefulness. This resulted in inquiries into the -sources of knowledge and conduct and ushered in a -new intellectual era that is now known as the Humanistic -period which, beginning about 450 <span class="smcap">B. C.</span>, -extended to 400 <span class="smcap">B. C.<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_87" id="Page_87">[Pg 87]</a></span></span></p> - -<p>The Sophists, who were teachers of rhetoric and -were accustomed to studying the phrasing of verbal -statements, became active in searching for the foundations -of thought.</p> - -<p>The Protagorean theory of knowledge was based -on Empedocles's doctrine that the inner atoms advance -to meet the outer ones. Perception is the resultant -product of these atoms when they collide. -They believed that this perception is something else -than the perceiving subject and is also something -different from the object giving birth to the perception. -It is conditioned by both, but has a distinct existence. -The doctrine of the subjectivity of sense -perception was developed in explanation of this -psychological problem. From this it followed that -knowledge must be strictly personal and could be -true only under conditions existing at the instant -of perception. These limitations caused Protagoras -to advance his theory of relativity, which teaches -that man is the measure of all things. Facts -are what appear to each individual to be statements -of truth. Isocrates, Plato, Aristotle, and -Socrates were the leaders of this intellectual movement.</p> - -<p>Socrates developed the Pythagorean theory of -intelligible forms. The specific qualities of the senses -belong to the realm of perception. When these are -withdrawn from an object of thought there remains -only the form or idea. Therefore it is evident that -pure, intelligible forms constitute the essences of -things. The early scientists, such as Democritus, -thought, perhaps, in terms of atom forms. Socrates, -Plato, and later teachers looked upon forms as conceptions -of similar logical elements. Knowledge, in -the view of Democritus, was essentially rationalistic.<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_88" id="Page_88">[Pg 88]</a></span> -Plato considered knowledge as having ethical and -æsthetic purposes within itself.</p> - -<p>Each of these types of rationalism stimulated -Greek thought and resulted in a strong impulse to -philosophical and scientific investigation. They prepared -the outlook for Aristotle.</p> - -<p>Science had been hampered by the confusion -raised by the discussions relating to forms. Aristotle -realized that proper progress in logic, physics, and -ethics, the leading sciences of his time, could not be -made unless the essential nature of science were -kept in view. He saw that knowledge of the forms -of correct thinking can be understood only by keeping -in view the object of thought and this requires -definite ideas of the general relations of knowledge -and its objects. The study of general relationships -led to the study of particular or special relations. -The connection of general with particular ideas was -unfolded, and Aristotle saw that conceiving, understanding, -and proving result from the deduction of -particular from universal, or general, ideas. Therefore -science consists in deriving or deducing facts -acquired through perception from their general -grounds or phenomena. The logical form of the -syllogism naturally suggested itself to Aristotle -when engaged with these thoughts and the invention -of the syllogism was one of the most -brilliant contributions to knowledge made by the -Greeks.</p> - -<p>The logical results of the invention of syllogistic -forms suggested a solution of the problem of true -reality which Aristotle showed was the essence that -unfolds in phenomena themselves. This led to fruitful -scientific results. Plato and his contemporaries -unified mathematics, formulated the definitions logi<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_89" id="Page_89">[Pg 89]</a></span>cally, -and demonstrated correct methods of criticism -and proof. A point was shown to be the boundary -of a line; while a line is the boundary of a surface, -and a surface the boundary of a solid. This concrete -definition of scientific elements progressed -through the use of analytic methods, by proceeding -from the known to the unknown, and led to -the discovery of tests for scientific assumptions -and of synthetic proof. None of the earlier philosophers -possessed anything like the progressive -tools Aristotle placed in the hands of scientists. -Their use quickly led to a general review of -knowledge and a great increase in the number of -sciences.</p> - -<p>The textbook on geometry compiled by Euclid, -still used in many schools, gives us a good picture -of the state of scientific methods in his time. Euclid, -like Aristotle, Plato, Socrates and others, was a great -systematizer. He collected the geometrical proofs -of his mathematical predecessors, selected those -which were logically correct and simple, and raised -on a few axioms, or first principles, a great geometrical -system.</p> - -<p>Archimedes published textbooks on spherical and -cylindrical geometry. He proved that the surface -of a sphere is equal to four times a great circle. He -showed the properties of spherical segments and -methods for calculating surface areas and other -parts of spherical forms.</p> - -<p>This great scientist also developed mechanics and -physics. He investigated the lever and demonstrated -the principle upon which its power is based. -He then studied hydrostatics and hydraulics, and -discovered the theory of specific gravity and invented -methods for determining it.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_90" id="Page_90">[Pg 90]</a></span></p> - -<p>Apollonius began publishing scientific textbooks -about forty years after Archimedes. His masterpiece -was his textbook on conic sections.</p> - -<p>The work done by Archimedes on the quadrature -of curvilinear figures resulted, centuries later, in the -discovery of the infinitesimal calculus, while the -theory of conic sections published by Apollonius led -to theories for the solution of problems relating to -geometrical curves of all degrees. They placed the -geometry of measurements and the geometry of -forms and positions on strictly scientific bases.</p> - -<p>Hipparchus applied the new mathematical and -geometrical discoveries to astronomy. He found a -method for representing the observed motions of -the sun, moon, and planets by assumed uniform circular -motions. His theory of the sun's motion -assumed that the earth was not the center of the -sun's orbit. He drew a line through the earth and -the real center of the orbit and found where the -sun's distance is least and where greatest. He then -compiled a large set of solar tables giving the position -of the sun among the stars at any time. He -next turned his attention to the movements of the -moon and prepared tables for determining eclipses.</p> - -<p>Then the various planets were studied and their -mean motions were calculated and recorded. The -stars were mapped and catalogued. He described -the apparent movements of 1,080 stars and comparing -his observations and calculations with those of -Aristyllus and Timocharis, made 150 years previously. -He also discovered the precession of the -equinoxes.</p> - -<p>The astronomical calculations of Hipparchus led -to a great improvement in trigonometrical methods. -By using chords, as we use sines, and assuming the<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_91" id="Page_91">[Pg 91]</a></span> -heavens to be a plane surface, he fixed the positions -of stars (and similarly geographical points) by -the intersections of lines of latitude and longitude.</p> - -<p>A planosphere, an instrument for representing -the mechanism of the heavens, was among the many -scientific inventions of Hipparchus.</p> - -<p>While Hipparchus was engaged upon problems in -astronomical physics, Hero, a professor of science -at Alexandria, was working out numerous problems -relating to matter and devising machines for practically -applying the teachings of mechanical science. -Ctesibius, assisted perhaps by his pupil Hero, made -a large number of valuable engineering inventions. -He was an authority on hydraulics and pneumatics. -He devised improved siphons, a pneumatic organ, a -force pump, a vacuum pump, a hot-air motor, and -other machines.</p> - -<p>His studies regarding the physics of gases led him -to adopt a molecular theory of matter. He believed -that there are vacua existing between the innumerable -particles which constitute matter in all its -states and forms.</p> - -<p>Ctesibius improved surveying instruments. His -dioptra, an instrument corresponding to a theodolite, -was a plane table set on a tripod, furnished with -compass points and two sights. The plane was adjusted -by screws and a water level. This instrument -was used by engineers for leveling, laying out -irrigation works and farm lands, sinking shafts for -mining and prospecting purposes, and for tunneling. -A cyclometer for measuring angles of dip and elevation -of rock beds and mountains was also used with -this instrument.</p> - -<p>The Greeks owed much of their knowledge of -hydrostatics, mechanics, pneumatics, and physics<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_92" id="Page_92">[Pg 92]</a></span> -generally to Ctesibius. He was not only a great inventor -and lecturer, but also a writer of valuable -textbooks dealing with physical and mechanical -sciences.</p> - -<p>Hero edited a number of editions of the textbooks -of Ctesibius, and is credited with inventing some of -the theories and machines discussed. He, too, published -numerous scientific books.</p> - -<p>Hero's work in trigonometry was important. He -described a formula for estimating the area of a -triangle which still bears his name. He defined -spherical triangles and arranged methods for determining -the volumes of irregular solids by measuring -the water displaced by them.</p> - -<p>The steam turbine is the best known of Hero's -machines. Scholars read much about his wonderful -musical instruments operated automatically by -pneumatic means resembling the mechanisms of -player-pianos, and particularly about his mechanical -toy mimicking a number of singing birds. A group -of birds were made alternately to sing and to -whistle. The mechanism consisted of air tubes -operating various kinds of whistles. A running -stream was made to operate an air compressor. The -air from the compressor tank operated the various -movements of the birds and supplied air for blowing -the whistles. The numerous mechanisms of this -character which Hero and his master made indicate -that they were as much at home in making pneumatic -and similar mechanical toys as is any expert -to-day. They not only knew the scientific principles, -but had the engineering and mechanical ability to -design them and make them work.</p> - -<p>Hero's fire engine is not as well known as his -steam engine. It was a remarkable invention, how<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_93" id="Page_93">[Pg 93]</a></span>ever. -It was worked by levers and force pumps and -resembled the engines still employed by fire companies -in some remote rural districts.</p> - -<p>Not the least interesting machine described by -Hero was his slot machine for dispensing wine and -other liquids. This machine consisted of a cylindrical -container with a slot hole on top through -which coins were dropped. Beneath this there was -a lever with a receptacle for the dropped coin. -The weight of a falling coin depressed one arm -of the lever and raised the other, which opened a -valve and allowed the liquid to escape. When the -lever arm had moved a certain distance, the -coin slipped off and the valve was automatically -closed.</p> - -<p>Hero's steam turbine was a crude model. Steam -was generated in a boiler and conducted through -pipes so as to play upon revolving globes or wheel -vanes. This machine was invented to operate -mechanical toys. It was not until nearly 2,000 -years later that it occurred to an inventor that steam -could be used to operate more important mechanism -than toys.</p> - -<p>The next great name in science is that of Claudius -Ptolemy, an Egyptian astronomer, who lived in -Alexandria about 139 <span class="smcap">A. D.</span> He brought out new -editions of the mathematical works of Hipparchus, -and published a number of scientific books of his -own. His principal work, known as the Grammar -of Mathematics, formed the basis of all astronomical -studies down to the time of Copernicus, about -1500 <span class="smcap">A. D.</span></p> - -<p>The earth formed the center of the universe, according -to Ptolemy's theory. The sun and planets, -he thought, revolved around the earth.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_94" id="Page_94">[Pg 94]</a></span></p> - -<p>We obtain our minutes and seconds from Ptolemy's -great work. He divided the circle with 360 -degrees and its diameter into 120 divisions. Each -division of the circumference he divided into sixty -parts. The Latin names for these parts were <i lang="la">partes -minutæ primæ</i> and <i lang="la">secundæ</i>, or the first small divisions -and the second small divisions.</p> - -<p>The Greek scientists were so interested in logical -analysis that they constantly investigated the fundamental -facts upon which their teachings were based. -They made provisional hypotheses, deduced mathematical -consequences, and compared these with the -results of observation and experiments. When Hipparchus -found that his planetary theories did not -meet his tests, he decided to make as many new -observations as possible and collect astronomical -data to be used at a later period by other scientists. -He realized that, while he knew the old theories were -incorrect, there was not enough data at hand to -enable better theories to be established. He therefore -deliberately labored to provide data for -posterity.</p> - -<p>Ptolemy's treatise on geography was an encyclopedia -of places, names, and descriptions. In this -work he located over 5,000 places between India and -Morocco, giving their latitude and longitude.</p> - -<p>Ptolemy's textbooks on sound and optics were -long celebrated. The work on optics contained valuable -chapters on refraction, a subject he had done -much to develop. These works contained some of -the finest collections of experimental data illustrating -the best scientific methods used in antiquity.</p> - -<p>The next great mathematicians and physicists -are Pappus and Diophantus. The former lived -about 300 <span class="smcap">A. D.</span> He was the author of textbooks on<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_95" id="Page_95">[Pg 95]</a></span> -mathematics and astronomy. Some of these have -been preserved and are of great value in exhibiting -the status of Greek science at that time.</p> - -<p>The arithmetical textbook of Diophantus, which -is extant, is remarkable as being the first to contain -a complete exposition of algebra and the use of -algebraic symbols and methods. Euclid solved quadratic -equations geometrically and Hero solved them -algebraically, although without using symbols. But -in Diophantus's arithmetic quadratics are solved by -the use of algebraic symbols. After several centuries, -when the Euclidean geometry was in the -ascendant, and many problems which were suited -to arithmetical and algebraic methods of analysis -were solved by geometrical and trigonometrical -means, Diophantus succeeded in renewing interest -in arithmetic and mathematics generally.</p> - -<p>Political changes and other intellectual interests -soon after the time of Diophantus turned men's -thoughts in other directions and no great scientists -were afterward developed by the Greeks.</p> - -<p>While the physicists were making their discoveries, -medical men were studying anatomy, biology, -and materia medica. Medical science in the time of -Diophantus had a status, with a theory and practice, -closely resembling those of to-day.</p> - -<p>Hippocrates of Cos (460 <span class="smcap">B. C.</span>), was the greatest -leader of Greek medical science. He cast superstition -aside and based his researches and practice -upon the same principles of inductive philosophy -that had proved so valuable in other sciences. He -established hospitals for the nursing of the sick, -and had attendants note the symptoms and the histories -of the cases. In this way a number of casebooks -were made. He wrote a work on Public<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_96" id="Page_96">[Pg 96]</a></span> -Health. His operations in trepanning were more -heroic than would be undertaken by good surgeons -to-day. These are described in his book on Injuries -of the Head. Many of his works are extant and -furnish very interesting and valuable pictures of -the state of medical science in Greece.</p> - -<p>During the several centuries in which the Greeks -placed science and all the leading departments of -knowledge upon firm bases, stripped of the sentimental -and traditional trappings which had come -down from remote times, changes of a political -nature were causing the immigration of foreign -peoples to Greece. The importance of preserving -racial purity was not recognized. The result was -that the original Greeks, who were of the long-headed -type, were forced to give way to the hordes -of inferior peoples coming in from Asia. These -new, round-headed people were not original thinkers, -and were unable to advance science and the arts as -the Greeks had done. They were, to a large extent, -even unable to appreciate the wonderful treasures -of knowledge bestowed upon them by the cultured -people they had displaced.</p> - -<p>The Egyptians and Babylonians advanced knowledge -for practical purposes and when these were -served they showed no desire to explore further. -But the analytical mind of the Greek called for -knowledge of basic laws and first principles.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_97" id="Page_97">[Pg 97]</a></span></p> -<div class="chapter"></div> -<hr class="chap" /> - - - - -<h2>CHAPTER VII<br /> - -THE ROMAN AND MIDDLE AGES</h2> - - -<p class="drop-capw"><span class="smcap">The</span> Romans succeeded to Greek culture; but they -were a business people.

They never produced -any great thinkers like Aristarchus, Hipparchus, -Euclid, Ptolemy, Archimedes, Democritus, Hippocrates, -Plato, Aristotle, and others referred to in the -preceding chapters.</p> - -<p>What the Romans lacked in intellect they made up -in energy.

He caused the rectification of -the calendar. In the year 47 <span class="smcap">B.

The -Romans were fascinated by the monotheism of -Christianity and the doctrines of a future life and -good will and love. There grew out of the critical -attacks on this new theology a powerful scholastic -philosophy aiming at the exposition, systematization, -and demonstration of the principal Christian -doctrines.</p> - -<p>Aurelius Augustinus, a native of Africa (353-430 -<span class="smcap">A.

Galileo -did equally fundamental work in developing the -laws of motion, and the principles of mechanism and -physics.</p> - -<p>The development of modern mathematics began -with three intellectual feats—the invention of the -Arabic notation, of decimal fractions, and of logarithms. -The notation was derived by the Arabs -from India about 700 <span class="smcap">A.

Simon Stevin (1548-1620), -a Belgian, made great improvements in<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_104" id="Page_104">[Pg 104]</a></span> -decimals. He adopted the plan of William Buckley, -of England, and other mathematicians, and made -the base 100,000, instead of 60.</p> - -<p>John Napier (1550-1617), a Scottish nobleman, -invented logarithms. The story of this great mathematician's -work is one of the most interesting in -the history of science. Napier's first table of logarithms -was published in 1614. Henry Briggs (1556-1631), -professor at Oxford, made suggestions for -the improvement of the tables, and persuaded -Napier to make the base 10, as is now done in tables -of common logarithms. Briggs published tables in -1624 containing the logarithms to 14 places of -decimals for the numbers between 1 and 20,000 and -from 90,000 to 100,000. Adrian Vlacq (1600-1667), -a Dutchman, computed the logarithms of the numbers -running from 20,000 to 90,000, and thus completed -the whole series of logarithms between 1 and -100,000. Edmund Gunter (1581-1626), of London, -calculated the logarithmic sines and tangents of -angles for every minute to seven places. He invented -the terms cosine and cotangent and used -them in a work published in 1620.</p> - -<p>Another Englishman, William Oughtred (1574-1660), -wrote textbooks on mathematics, and invented -numerous mathematical symbols which are -now in general use, as well as rectilinear and circular -slide rules.</p> - -<p>Bonaventura Cavalieri (1598-1647) made many -improvements in mathematical formulæ and expounded -a new method of indivisibles which solved -some of the difficult astronomical problems raised -by Kepler, and enabled Torricelli, Viviani, de Roberval, -and others to solve abstruse problems relating -to all types of curved figures.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_105" id="Page_105">[Pg 105]</a></span></p> - -<p>Pierre de Fermat (1601-1665), one of the greatest -of French mathematicians, developed rules for calculating -maxima and minima.

His discoveries of the functions of the -heart, the arteries, and the veins were epochal. He -did his work so well and made such simple, yet -telling, demonstrations that he had less difficulty -than his predecessors in getting his teachings -accepted. He was soon recognized as the peer of -Hippocrates and Galen.</p> - -<p>Harvey died without actually seeing the blood -coursing from the arteries into the veins, but four -years after his death Marcello Malpighi (1628-1694) -exhibited microscopically the passage of blood corpuscles -through the minute vessels in the lung of a -turtle, on their way from the heart through the -arteries into the veins and returning to the heart. -The blood circulation was demonstrated at a subsequent -date by applying a microscope to the web of -a frog's foot.

The old -method was to use boiling oil. He found that by -simply cleaning and bandaging wounds he could get -better and quicker results than with hot oil, which -was a very painful treatment. Paré used ligaments -in stopping hemorrhages, improved the surgery in -harelip and hernia operations and for suprapubic -lithotomy.

The success -of these experiments led to a great reform in -medical practice. Thomas Willis (1622-1675), an -English physician, completed the development of the -treatments suggested by Van Helmont and Sylvius -as a result of their studies of the works of Harvey.</p> - -<p>Another great English medical genius arose to -establish the practice of medicine on a scientific -basis.

The -Dutchmen above named and Sydenham discovered -many active medicinal substances. Sydenham's -principal discovery in materia medica was that of -the properties of laudanum.</p> - -<p>William Gilbert, court physician to Queen Elizabeth -of England, while Galileo and Stevin were -developing the laws of gravitation and hydrodynamics, -undertook the investigation of the laws -of terrestrial magnetism and chemistry. His researches -in chemistry were extensive and valuable. -His fame, however, was perpetuated by his study -of magnetism and electricity. He found that the -earth is a vast magnet with north and south poles. -His remarkable textbook on magnetism covered -many of the fundamental facts known to-day.

By means of his barometer, -Torricelli was able to make great advances in knowledge -relating to the physics of the air and to gas -pressures, and he investigated the principles of -hydraulics.

Before -this period there had been a sterile age in which the -fundamental purpose of education was only to teach -men how to protect the soul and to serve God. This -humanistic principle, however, failed to advance -knowledge of the laws of nature, and the researches -of the scientists gradually caused a strong reaction -against it. This in turn resulted in further advances -being made, not only in the sciences, but in all -departments of learning. The way was paved for -the era of naturalism, developed by Hobbes, Locke, -Descartes, Voltaire, Kant, Rousseau, and others. -Naturalism aimed at explaining all phenomena in -the simplest terms, and correlating all things by -universal principles. It has received a great impetus -in modern times from the Darwinian theory of -evolution.</p> - -<p>The great scientific discoveries of the sixteenth -and seventeenth centuries had other important educational -effects. They led to professional specialization -and the founding of scientific institutions, -schools, and universities. The Lyncean Society of -Scientists was founded in Italy in Galileo's time. -It subsequently became, in 1657, the Accademia del -Cimento.</p> - -<p>The Royal Society of England was organized -about 1645 and chartered in 1662. It did much -valuable scientific work from its inception. It has -assisted the foremost scientists in their work, directed -scientific researches, and financed the printing -of scientific records and the carrying out of foreign -expeditions. Nearly all the leading countries in the -world have formed institutions with similar aims.</p> - -<p>The chemical discoveries of Boyle attracted widespread -attention and led to investigations started -with the view of discovering the constitution of -matter. Hermann Boerhaave (1668-1738) of -Leyden, took up the study of organic chemistry. -Stephen Hales (1677-1761) did similar work in -England. Both of these chemists invented valuable -laboratory processes and instruments. Hales -improved the pneumatic trough used for collecting -gases.</p> - -<p>Scientists were now furnished with the telescope, -compass, sextant, microscope, barometer, thermometer, -air pump, manometer, and other instruments -so that cellular structures of plants, animals, -and insects, the microbes and bacteria, the animalculæ -found in water and in the sea, as well as the -phenomena of the air, sky, and earth crust could -now be studied by trained observers. The invention -of these instruments caused workers to specialize -more and more, and completely severed science -from philosophy, of which it had been an appendage -since the earliest times.</p> - -<p>The microscopical investigations of Malpighi, -Kircher, Leeuwenhoek, Grew, and Hooke opened -up an immense field for research. They developed -microscopical chemistry and anatomy, and changed -the prevailing ideas regarding animal and vegetable -tissues.

The philosophical writings of -Berkeley, Locke, Hume, Spinoza, Voltaire, Rousseau, -and others supplemented the books of the scientists -and promoted rational thinking. Syllogistic reasoning -displaced the practice of accepting beliefs upon -authority. This change in public thought reacted -most favorably upon science.</p> - -<p>Gottfried Wilhelm Leibnitz (1646-1716) conceived -matter as a plurality of simple forces. Many kinds -of matter, he said, exist. There is no single natural -force, but an infinite number. Each force is represented -by some individual substance. Force is indivisible, -immaterial, and unextended. Simple forces -he called essential forms, units, atoms, or monads. -The monads are not mathematical points, nor physical -points. Real points are metaphysical. In other -words, Leibnitz created a philosophy of eternal -force atoms.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_118" id="Page_118">[Pg 118]</a></span></p> - -<p>The Greeks were taught by Leucippus, Empedocles -and Anaxagoras that matter is formed of atoms. -Space is infinite; atoms are indivisible. Atoms are -in a continuous state of activity. Atoms constitute -worlds and planets. Falling through space they -give rise to eddying motions by mutual impact. -Many philosophers rejected these views. Throughout -the ages, however, they were learned by students -and when Leibnitz advanced his new atomic theory, -the world was ready to consider it. The Leibnitzian -monads were like Plato's ideas—eternal purposes. -Aristotle held that monads are absolute, indivisible -beings. Leibnitz suggested that each monad is in -process of evolution and realizes its nature through -inner necessity. It is not determined from without. -Each form of matter existed in germ in an embryo. -Nothing in a monad can be lost, and future stages -are predetermined in the earlier stages. Each -monad is charged with the past and big with the -future. The biologists at this period generally -accepted this incasement theory. Caspar F. Wolff -suggested, in 1759, that there is an epigenesis or a -progressive evolution and differentiation of organs -from a homogeneous primitive germ. This view did -not meet with approval until Darwin published his -great discoveries in the middle of the last century.</p> - -<p>The history of the atomic theories furnishes a -clear illustration of the long period of preparation -that great scientific ideas must pass through before -they are united by a generalizing genius of exceptional -capacity and launched in the form of a new -theory.</p> - -<p>Modern mathematical science grew out of the -analytical geometry of Descartes. He showed that -the true method for the discovery of scientific facts<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_119" id="Page_119">[Pg 119]</a></span> -was to accept nothing as true which was clearly not -recognizable as true. All assumptions should be -proved. Each difficulty should be separately studied. -No intermediate steps should be skipped, and details -should be methodically enumerated. Thoughts must -be guided in an orderly manner, beginning with the -simplest characteristics of an object and proceeding -in a logical sequence to the most complicated aspects -of each subject. Descartes carried out his own rules -in his work. His improvements in the differential -calculus, and those in the integral calculus made by -Cavalieri, and in the calculus of probabilities by -Pascal and Fermat, furnished scientists with instruments -capable of solving almost every physical -problem met with in their investigations.</p> - -<p>One of the first results of the new analytical -methods was the establishment of the science of -optics.</p> - -<p>Newton demonstrated that white light is composed -of rays of various colors, and that the color -reflected by any object is due to the ability of the -object to reflect certain rays while absorbing the -rest. The Dutch physicist, Huygens, championed -the undulatory or wave theory of light. Refraction -was explained by both Newton and Huygens, and -the latter, while studying the double refraction of -crystals of Iceland spar, discovered the phenomena -of polarization.</p> - -<p>Boyle's chemical discoveries led to much research -in chemistry. Black, Bergman and Van Helmont -investigated the properties of carbonic acid gas.</p> - -<p>Joseph Black treated limestone with acid and collected -the gas evolved in a Hales pneumatic trough. -He weighed the gas and the remainder of the limestone, -finding that what the limestone lost was<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_120" id="Page_120">[Pg 120]</a></span> -equivalent to the weight of the gas. He then -reversed the process and succeeded in making chalk -from a solution of lime. This simple experiment -paved the way for chemical analysis and syntheses -which have added profoundly to our knowledge of -the composition of matter.</p> - -<p>Bergman tested Black's gas with litmus and found -it gave an acid reaction and in 1779 Lavoisier -demonstrated that it consisted of carbon and -oxygen.</p> - -<p>Priestley and Cavendish, both English chemists, -then took up this study. Cavendish treated iron, -tin, zinc, and other metals with sulphuric acid and -discovered a new gas which he termed hydrogen.</p> - -<p>Rutherford discovered nitrogen in 1772 and -Priestley isolated nitric oxide, and in 1774 discovered -oxygen.

Never before was such -rapid and marvelous progress made. The releasing -of the mind from the oppressive restrictions of -earlier conservative ages liberated the intellectual -energies of mankind. A new idealistic philosophy -supplanted that of an earlier period and universal -attention was given to science and material things. -Amidst these changes social science was devolved, -and, with it, the study of psychology.</p> - -<p>But it was the physical sciences which most felt -the stimulus of the new rationalistic spirit.</p> - -<p>The relationships between physical magnitudes -are established by measurements. When these are -accurately ascertained, questions regarding their -variable functions can be solved by mathematical -principles. Physics is thus linked with mathematics -through measurements. The more science -advances, the greater is the accuracy needed in -physical measurements. The strictness and clearness -of experimentation which has been attained -in physics has given birth to a science of measurement, -which has its own instruments, rules, -methods, and formulæ.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_130" id="Page_130">[Pg 130]</a></span></p> - -<p>Measurement of length is one of the bases of -physics. It is a relative operation carried out by -comparing the length of one body with that of -another. Standards of length are preserved by a -Bureau of Weights and Measures in most countries. -Delambre, a French authority on the decimal system -of measures, taught at the beginning of the -nineteenth century that magnitudes as small as the -hundredth of a millimeter are incapable of observation. -The International Bureau of Weights and -Measures now guarantees to determine two or -three ten-thousandths of a millimeter. So much -has the science of measurement progressed in a -century.</p> - -<p>The undulations of light rays are used for determining -standard lengths. Michelson and Benoit -measured a standard length of ten centimeters, in -1894, in terms of the wave lengths of the red, green, -and blue radiations of cadmium, and then in terms -of the French standard meter. These experiments -yielded very accurate results.</p> - -<p>The measurement of mass is another important -base of physics. Mass is the quantity of matter in -a body and the action which gravity exerts on mass -is called weight. Weight does not depend entirely -upon mass, but also upon the position of the body -weighed, because when the body is weighed in one -place and reweighed in another, there will be a -difference in the force of gravity due to change of -latitude and of altitude. National standards of -mass have been made of alloys of iridium and -platinum.</p> - -<p>Many remarkable measurements of time, temperature, -and physical constants were carried out -during the century.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_131" id="Page_131">[Pg 131]</a></span></p> - -<p>High and low temperature charts were completed, -showing temperatures in the air, the earth, and the -sea. Instruments and methods were devised for -measuring any temperature whether of high furnace -gases or low freezing mixtures.</p> - -<p>The measuring units of mass, length, time, and -temperature are fundamental, others like velocity, -acceleration, power, and area are referred to them. -For that reason the latter are called derived units. -Many of these are important and call for accurate -determinations.</p> - -<p>One of the first achievements of the century was -the establishment of the doctrine of the conservation -of energy.</p> - -<p>Francis Bacon had suggested that motion is a -phenomenon of heat, and Newton had divined the -principle of the conservation of energy, but it was -Benjamin Thompson, Count Rumford, who discovered -the nature of friction and made the first -estimate of the mechanical equivalent of heat. Sir -Humphry Davy showed that two pieces of ice could -be melted by simply rubbing them together, in a -vacuum. But he failed to draw the great inference -that this experiment warranted.</p> - -<p>If he had observed that the heat could not have -been supplied by the ice because ice is an absorber -of heat, he would have anticipated the great work -done by James P. Joule, an English physicist, who -published the results of many experiments carried -out by him prior to 1843. His task was to find the -exact mechanical equivalent of heat.</p> - -<p>His best results were secured by dropping a mass -of lead from a measured height and using the -energy generated during the descent to operate a -revolving paddle in a dish of measured water.<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_132" id="Page_132">[Pg 132]</a></span> -Delicate thermometers recorded the increase of -temperature in the water and showed that the -descent of 424 grams of lead through a distance of -one meter, or one gram of lead through 424 meters, -generated sufficient heat to raise one gram of -water one degree centigrade (1° C.).</p> - -<p>Otherwise expressed, a fall of 772 lbs. of lead -through a distance of 1 foot, or 1 lb. of lead through -772 feet, raises the temperature of 1 lb. of water -one degree Fahrenheit (1° F.). These 772 foot-pounds, -or 424 gram-meters, represent the mechanical -equivalent of heat upon which so many -important theories have been based. But Joule's -equivalent was determined for common air temperatures -whereas the specific heat of water increases -with the temperature so that the value of the -equivalent rises with increased temperatures. -Osborne Reynolds, in 1897, found the mean equivalent -for temperatures between the freezing and -boiling points to be 777 foot-pounds.</p> - -<p>The discovery of Joule's equivalent established a -relationship between motion or mechanical work -performed and the amount of heat generated when -work is completely expanded in friction. The same -relationships continue good when the work is transformed -by indirect means as by generating electric -currents or expanding gases. The multitude -of elegant experiments used to confirm the truth of -Joule's law showed that heat is not a substance, or -calorie, but a purely mechanical effect. This great -discovery of the relation of friction and heat lies -at the basis of electricity, molecular physics, and -chemistry, and is the source of the formulæ used -by engineers in designing power machinery. The -internal combustion engine is largely a result of<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_133" id="Page_133">[Pg 133]</a></span> -the discovery of Joule's equivalent and the physical -theories derived from it.</p> - -<p>This great discovery caused a new theory of matter -to be developed. Dalton had suggested, when -applying the atomic theory to chemistry, that when -two elements combine to form a third substance, it -is probable that one atom of one element joins itself -to one atom of the other, unless some exceptional -condition exists. When water is formed by bringing -oxygen and hydrogen together, he supposed -that one atom of oxygen combined with one atom of -hydrogen. Gay-Lussac subsequently proved that -not only does one volume of oxygen combine with -two volumes of hydrogen (not one as Dalton -believed) in the production of water, but that nitric -and carbonic acid gases combine with ammonia gas -in the ratio of 1:1 or 1:2. He also demonstrated -that one volume of nitrogen united with three of -hydrogen form ammonia, and that carbonic oxide -burning in a mass of oxygen consumes half its volume -of oxygen. He concluded from these and other -facts that gases always combine together in simple -proportions by volume and that the apparent contraction -of volume they show on combining bears a -similar simple relationship to the volume of one or -more of the gases.</p> - -<p>Avogadro, working on Gay-Lussac's experimental -data, suggested that the number of integral molecules -in any gas is always the same for equal volumes, -or is always proportional to the volumes. He -also suggested that equal volumes of different gases -at the same pressure and temperature contain the -same number of molecules. Experiments on alcohol -made by Williamson raised doubts as to the validity -of Avogadro's hypotheses when applied to chemical<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_134" id="Page_134">[Pg 134]</a></span> -combinations. These doubts were cleared in 1860, -when the new chemical atomic weights and formulæ -were introduced into English textbooks.</p> - -<p>The molecular theory of matter derived from -these experiments supposes that all visible forms of -matter are aggregations of simpler and smaller -chemical elements. Mendeléeff and Newlands -showed that the physical and chemical properties of -the elements are functions of their atomic weights.</p> - -<p>Investigations of radioactivity and the observations -based upon the passage of electric currents -through gases have recently modified our views -with respect to the atomic theory, but these points -will be dealt with in the chapter dealing with -radiation.</p> - -<p>Questions regarding the eventual loss of energy -in matter are best studied in gases. A considerable -number of important investigations are now being -carried on in Europe with the view of tracing the -interchanges of molecular energies in gas molecules. -Maxwell and other investigators found long -ago that the motion of molecules cannot go on perpetually. -The energy of motion will in time be -frittered away by friction, air resistance, collisions -with other molecules, vibrations set up by collisions, -and other molecular movements. It has been found -that the energy which is dissipated by air resistance -is transformed into energy in the air. That -which is lost by collisions is converted into internal -vibrations within each molecule. The question -now arises as to what effects are exerted on a gas. -It involves the effects of the communicated internal -molecular vibrations and their transference of -energy to the surrounding medium. What is -known as the Quantum dynamic theory has been<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_135" id="Page_135">[Pg 135]</a></span> -proposed to account for this phenomena. Quantum -dynamics appear to be distinct from the Newtonian.</p> - -<p>Carnot and Clausius discovered that the motive -power of heat is independent of the agents brought -into play for its realization. The motive power of a -waterfall depends, for example, on its height and -on the quantity of water falling within a given -time. Clausius stated the Carnot idea in mechanical -terms by saying: That in a series of transformations, -in which the final is identical with the initial -stage, it is impossible for heat to pass from a -colder to a warmer body unless some other accessory -phenomenon occurs at the same time. A heat -motor, which, after a series of transformations, -returns to its initial state, can only supply work, or -power, if there exist two sources of heat, and if a -certain quantity of heat is given to one of the -sources which can never be the hotter of the two. -The output of a reversible machine working -between two given temperatures is greater than -that of any nonreversible engine, and it is the -same for all reversible machines working between -these two temperatures.</p> - -<p>Clausius showed that this principle conduces to -the definition of an absolute scale of temperature -and there is another factor assisting in restoring -physical equilibrium which he termed entropy. It -is a variable which, like pressure or volume, serves -concurrently with another variable to define the -state of a body.</p> - -<p>These discoveries of Carnot and Clausius showed -the impossibility of finding a source of perpetual -motion and helped to solve many of the difficulties -in securing efficiency from internal combustion -engines. Industrial, as well as scientific results of<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_136" id="Page_136">[Pg 136]</a></span> -immense importance have developed from these -principles.</p> - -<p>Theories on the compressible fluids and elastic -equilibrium were developed as the result of work -done between 1875 and 1896 by J. W. Gibbs, -Helmholtz, Duhem, and others on internal thermodynamic -potentials. These theories have proved -of incalculable value in elucidating electrical and -radiation phenomena.</p> - -<p>Another discovery of Gibbs, made in 1876, has -also had brilliant results. It is known as the Phase -Law. The homogeneous substances into which a -material system is divided is called a phase. Carbonate -of lime, lime, and carbonic acid gas are the -three phases of a system which comprises Iceland -spar partially dissociated into lime and carbonic -acid gas. The number of phases, combined with the -number of independent bodies entering into the -reactions, fixes the general form of the law of equilibrium -of the system. This discovery of Gibbs has -resulted in greatly extending the field of physics. -It is of importance in molecular and atomic investigations, -in osmosis, electrolysis, and in most questions -dealing with thermodynamics.</p> - -<p>Light is generally defined as the sense impression -received by the eye. It was formerly believed -that it was caused by streams of corpuscles emitted -by the source of light. This was known as the -emission theory. Early in the nineteenth century, -the undulatory displaced the emission theory. -According to this, light is a transverse vibratory -motion extended longitudinally through the ether.</p> - -<p>The experiments of Faraday, Maxwell, Fresnel, -Hamilton, Green, and others suggested that the -undulatory theory required for its validity a new<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_137" id="Page_137">[Pg 137]</a></span> -medium different from the atmospheric air and -from every substance known to man. Just as the -results of investigations into reflection, refraction, -diffraction, and polarization showed that the old -corpuscular theory of light was untenable, so these -experiments seemed to cast doubt upon both the -undulatory and emission theories.</p> - -<p>Fresnel, when studying problems in polarization, -noticed that a theory of light proposed by Hooke -appeared to be true. Hooke asserted that light -vibrations are not longitudinal but transverse.</p> - -<p>Fresnel found by his experiments that the idea of -longitudinal vibrations acting along the line of propagation -in the direction of the rays would not -explain the polarization changes in light. They -suggested that there was a transverse movement -perpendicular to the ray. When Fresnel's researches -were published, physicists realized that if -the transverse direction of luminous vibrations was -denied the undulatory movement of light would also -be denied. Now transverse vibrations cannot exist -in any medium resembling a fluid, because it is -characteristic of fluids that, so long as the volume -continues constant, its different parts can be displaced -without the appearance of any reaction. This -necessitates the assumption that light needs a solid -body for its transmission and Lord Kelvin asserted -that this body must be a solid more rigid than steel.</p> - -<p>When the vibratory theory was accepted, it -became necessary to investigate the nature of the -ether and to determine its characteristic properties. -Neumann, MacCullagh, Green, and Stokes then -developed an elastic solid theory of the ether.</p> - -<p>The experiments of Lord Rayleigh, Lorentz, -Drude, Larmor, and others suggested that light is<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_138" id="Page_138">[Pg 138]</a></span> -identical with electromagnetic disturbances and, -consequently, is an electrical phenomenon.</p> - -<p>Some of the finest developments in physics during -the nineteenth century were in the realm of -electricity. They resulted in an enormous extension -of the use of electricity in industry and -commerce and led to the investigation of radioactivities -of various kinds and these in turn are -developing investigations of a most brilliant -character.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_139" id="Page_139">[Pg 139]</a></span></p> -<div class="chapter"></div> -<hr class="chap" /> - - - - -<h2>CHAPTER XI<br /> - -THE NATURAL SCIENCES</h2> - - -<p class="drop-capw"><span class="smcap">Manifestations</span> of animal life are everywhere -visible.

Just as men who inhabit dry -districts are usually nomads on account of their -need of seeking new food supplies, so animals and -insects are forced to migrate for a similar reason. -The life changes wrought by disease epidemics -under climatic influences have also been studied -and have shed much light upon the origin and -development of many organs and upon the habits of -animals. Some of the chief inferences arising from -investigations on the effects of climatic variations -on life are that certain types of climate favor the -development of certain animal species; certain -climates have prevailed in historical times in centers -where civilization flourished greatly. Therefore -it may be presumed that definite climatic conditions -are required for the specific development of -each type of species and for each kind of civilization. -Just as history shows that one of the many -conditions of human progress has changed repeatedly -from century to century on account of variations -in climatic factors, so these stimuli have, -from the earliest times, swayed and modified all -classes of organic life. Climate serves to develop, -retard, or extinguish animal characteristics, -habits, and development. The study of the rôle of<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_142" id="Page_142">[Pg 142]</a></span> -climate in modifying living conditions has disclosed -data which throws much light on the philosophical -problems surrounding organic life, its laws and -progress.</p> - -<p>The voyage of the <em>Beagle</em> in 1831, for a scientific -cruise to South America, with Charles Darwin -aboard as naturalist; that of the Ross Antarctic -expedition in 1839, with Sir W.

Huxley as surgeon, -resulted in the assembling of scientific data in natural -history fields which, when classified and developed, -revolutionized the natural sciences.</p> - -<p>The work of the <em>Challenger</em>, in 1872, and many -other memorable British scientific expeditions augmented -and confirmed the data collected in the -earlier explorations.</p> - -<p>Harvey's explanation of the movement of the -blood by the pumping pulsations of the heart quickened -interest in biology. Mayer and Helmholtz, -when chemists, had succeeded in artificially making -urea and sugar and investigated living organisms -from the viewpoint of mechanisms operated on the -principle of the conservation of energy. They -traced the manifold functions of the body to chemical -and thermal energies developed by the destruction -of food.</p> - -<p>These valuable discoveries were augmented by -Schleiden and Schwann, showing that all organisms -are built up of living cells. The offices performed -within cells by colloids and solutions, and -in the nerves by electric movements, were traced.</p> - -<p>Investigations into the most minute forms of -animal life also furnished startling results. Schwann -found, in 1838, that fermenting yeast consists of<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_143" id="Page_143">[Pg 143]</a></span> -living vegetable cells, and that organic putrefaction -is caused by the activities of such cells. Louis Pasteur -(1822-1895) demonstrated that the presence -of bacteria in any animal is always due to the -entrance of bacteria and microbes from the outside, -or by means favoring the abnormal increase of -existing germs. He also showed by experiments -that diseases like chicken cholera, phylloxera, or the -silkworm disease are caused by particular microbes. -These discoveries led to the tracing of many common -diseases to their special living germs.</p> - -<p>While these impressive additions to scientific -knowledge were being made, other naturalists were -studying the instinctive emotional and intelligent -behavior and psychology of animals, both singly -and in herds. Animals and insects were found to -display signs of intelligence, sometimes of a high -order; to live socially, in many cases; and to play -and court with emotional attributes. Throughout -the animal kingdom, until man is reached, animals -are guided in their activities by self and racial -preservation.</p> - -<p>Play was found to be a fruitful factor in animal -education, even in minute insects. The behavior of -any animal does not stand alone, but is related to -that of others. Animals which hunt, or are hunted, -combatants, rivals, mates, and enemies, react upon -one another.</p> - -<p>Entomology, the science of insects, has been -extensively systematized. Practically every phenomenon -relating to the insect metamorphosis has -been disclosed. The works of Binet, Lubbock, -Fabre, and many others have illuminated the psychology -of insect life. The charming writings of J. -H. Fabre on the life of a fly, on the mason bees, the<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_144" id="Page_144">[Pg 144]</a></span> -hunting wasps, the life of a caterpillar, of a grasshopper, -of the sacred beetles and other insects, are -as thrilling and instructive as any masterpiece of -romantic writing. What could be more interesting -than Fabre's account of his observations on the -glowworm, when he discovered that its luminescence -is due to oxidation by air forces through a -special lightning tube, and that it occurs in males -as well as females and in the eggs and grubs likewise? -He shows that the glowworm's life, from -start to finish, is one carnival of light. The females -are living lighthouses which brilliantly illumine -the wild thyme and other flowering plants they -haunt on dark nights, making miniature fairylands -in country districts.</p> - -<p>Studies in the growth and form of living bodies -have opened up many interesting problems in -physical biology. The cell and tissue, shell and -bone, leaf and flower are various portions of matter, -the particles of which are moved, molded, conformed, -or shaped in obedience to the laws of -physics. Forms like those of the lovely wing scales -of butterflies, of lace flies, or the spiral shells of the -foraminifera are natural diagrams of the results -of physical forces. Biologists not only study the -nature of the motions of living organisms as -animal kinetics, but also the conformation of the -organism itself, whose permanence or equilibrium -is explained by the interaction or balance of forces -leading to static conditions.</p> - -<p>The dynamics of cell formation and cell division -and their karyokinetic figure drawings are the -result of numerous complex physical force struggles -brought about by chemical and physiological -reactions. Studies of these have shown that the<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_145" id="Page_145">[Pg 145]</a></span> -spermatozoön, nucleus, chromosomes, or the germ -plasms, which develop organic life, can never act -alone. They must be started by other forces which -make them seats of energy.</p> - -<p>The experiments of George Rainey on the -elementary formation of the skeletons of small -animals, of Carpenter upon the formation of shells, -and those of Professor Harting on the same subjects, -have shown how lime solutions acting in conjunction -with gelatinous substances, or membranes, -build up the numerous geometric shapes of the -frames of so many kinds of primitive organisms, -and the scales of fish or the extraordinarily beautiful -markings and sculpture of shells.</p> - -<p>The application of the Cartesian coordinates -to the outline of organisms, skulls, bones, and -organs of animals has opened up a new field of -mathematics—biological research which has yielded -many results confirming theories based on other -data and supplying facts of great interest that -may at any time result in the establishment of important -generalizations.</p> - -<p>The fact of beauty in animate nature is so pronounced, -and man's contemplative delight in beautiful -things is so natural that investigations have -been made into the æsthetic emotions of other -animals. A vast array of facts has been collected -which leaves no doubt of the universal appreciation -of beauty. The lovely colors of shells, butterflies -and birds, the extraordinary beauty of the -designs of the frames of the Foraminifera, radiolarians -and sponges, the graceful logarithmic spirals -of horns and flower and leaf buds, and the charming -flowing lines in the shape of the race horse and -gazelle, these elements of organic beauty which<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_146" id="Page_146">[Pg 146]</a></span> -emphasize and enhance the forms of animals, all -contribute to the general embellishment of nature. -The combinations of beauty of form, color, and -movements in parrots, humming birds, the fish inhabiting -coral reefs, butterflies, and orchids, are -always perfect. We likewise find that in all parts -of the globe, and in each life zone, organic beauty -conforms to that of the landscape and the heavens. -The biological significance of this universality of -beauty in the organic world will be dealt with in -the following chapter.</p> - -<p>The fishes of the seas, rivers, streams, and lakes -have been studied, classified, and described as completely -as the insects of the air, the field, the soil, -and those parasitic upon other organisms.</p> - -<p>The surveys of the Atlantic have brought to -light many types of fish which inhabit only the -deepest parts of the ocean. These fish are modified -in most extraordinary ways to fit their surroundings. -Owing to the darkness of their living -zones, they are provided with luminescent appendages -which are practically similar to the firefly's -and glowworm's electric generators. The lights -are formed, as in the insects, by the oxidation of -material exuded by the fish.</p> - -<p>There are more than 180 families of fishes -recorded. Each family contains an average of -twenty genera and each genus about five species. -The known species of fish are, therefore, between -19,000 and 20,000. The Danish naturalist Hensen -found 278,795,000,000 fecundated fish eggs per -square mile in the summer waters of the Skagerrack. -The waters of the seas from the Arctic to the -Antarctic limits are full of fish eggs as well as -those of shellfish and sea organisms generally.<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_147" id="Page_147">[Pg 147]</a></span> -This shows that organic life is as abundant in the -sea as anywhere on land.</p> - -<p>Just as temperature and salinity are the chief -agents of oceanic circulation and current movements, -so they are the leading factors in promoting -the organic life of the sea.</p> - -<p>The vast heterogeneous mixtures of living creatures, -comprising vegetable and animal organisms, -larvæ, and eggs of fish and animals, which are swept -hither and thither by the sea tides are called plankton. -This term means the living dust or emulsion -of the sea.</p> - -<p>It has been shown that vegetable plankton is -composed of bacteria and adult microscopic algæ, -largely of the Diatomaceæ, Peridinaceæ, Cyanophyceæ, -and other primary groups.</p> - -<p>The animal plankton comprises a mass of microscopic -creatures belonging to the Protozoa, -Radiolaria, and Globeriginæ. There are also immense -numbers of tiny, invisible crustaceans like -the Copepoda, and eggs and spores of all kinds of -fish and algæ. These organisms are so dense in -certain sea areas that their particular colorations -are reflected in the water. The Red Sea, for example, -is colored by a reddish algæ; the Baltic and -ocean areas near Greenland are colored green by -swarms of algæ, and certain tropical seas are often -brilliantly colored in the same manner.</p> - -<p>Plankton furnishes fish with nutriment. The -study of the movements of plankton, at seasonal -intervals, has led to the discovery of the causes, extent, -and results of the migration of the principal -commercial fishes. These researches are so valuable -that most large nations support marine biological -stations and ships to regularly make obser<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_148" id="Page_148">[Pg 148]</a></span>vations. -The Norwegian naturalist Särs, Sir John -Murray, the Prince of Monaco, and others have -furnished accounts of the life histories, feeding -grounds, metamorphoses and migrations of many -fishes, and have shown how the inhabitants of the -plankton masses live upon themselves or produce -nitrifying or denitrifying bacteria, chemicals, and -mineral substances like lime, phosphates, and horny -membranous material.</p> - -<p>The development of biology and embryology, and -the peculiar habits and color schemes of certain -fish, insects, birds, and animals led to inquiries -about design in nature, the causes of the development -of species, and the instincts and habits of -animals. Erasmus, Darwin, Buffon, Cuvier, and -others began these studies, but it was Charles Darwin -(1809-1882), who by the publication of his -"Origin of Species" in 1859, first furnished many of -the keys to the riddles of organic life. The next -chapter will show what has developed from his -labors.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_149" id="Page_149">[Pg 149]</a></span></p> -<div class="chapter"></div> -<hr class="chap" /> - - - - -<h2>CHAPTER XII<br /> - -ORGANIC EVOLUTION, VARIATION, AND -HEREDITY</h2> - - -<p class="drop-capw"><span class="smcap">Science</span> developed when primitive man began -pondering over the problems of the creation. -He sought the causes of life, of the development of -life forms, and the authorship or origin of the uniformity -and apparent design in nature. It is, therefore, -probable that what we now study as the -science of organic evolution is one of the oldest of -the sciences. As the ages have rolled on, the origin -of life has been explained in turn by theories of: -(1) eternity of present conditions; (2) miraculous -creation; (3) catastrophism with (a) increases by -immigration (b) increases by successive creations; -and, finally, by (4) organic evolution.</p> - -<p>The term organic evolution means the forming -of new combinations of the elements of organisms. -It does not mean the arising of an animal or plant -out of nothing—a new creation. That idea was -exploded long ago. The science which Darwin -started surveys the whole course of natural history -in terms of four dimensions—length, breadth, -depth, and duration. This was the plan which led -Darwin to his great discoveries. While studying -the minor changes taking place in common animals -and plants, and looking over the broad vistas of -nature back to the remotest times, he saw how -each year countless weak and ill-adapted plants,<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_150" id="Page_150">[Pg 150]</a></span> -insects, and animals were killed off. When he -reflected that this process has been going on -throughout all time, the idea flashed into his mind -that it is through this testing ordeal that adaptability -of surviving organisms is derived.</p> - -<p>One of the grandest conceptions of the human -mind is that the apparently complex, inharmonic -system of nature has developed from a simple -beginning on a cooled globe from a jellylike cell.</p> - -<p>The theory of the permanence of species was -generally held by biologists before publication of -Darwin's first great book. Darwin said that no -naturalist of his time doubted the accuracy of the -theory of the eternity of existing conditions and -they refused to listen to his views regarding the -mutability of species.</p> - -<p>Darwin put forth the theory of organic evolution -by natural selection and the survival of the -fittest. The great beauty of this theory lies in its -simplicity and its appeal to agencies which we can -see in full operation every day and night. The -skillful manner in which Darwin marshaled data -to substantiate his theory quickly converted the -scientific world, and led to revolutionary changes in -the general tendencies of knowledge, and in practically -all fields of human activity.</p> - -<p>Darwin's terse statement of his conception was: -"As many more individuals of each species are -born than can possibly survive, and as consequently -there is a frequently recurring struggle for existence, -it follows that any being, if it vary in any -manner profitable to itself, under the complex and -sometimes varying conditions of life, will have a -better chance of surviving, and thus be naturally -selected. From the strong principle of inheritance<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_151" id="Page_151">[Pg 151]</a></span> -any selected variety will tend to propagate its new -and modified form." ("Origin of Species," Intro.)</p> - -<p>This statement of the doctrine of the survival of -the fittest, suggesting a glimpse at the great -pageant of nature from the remotest times, shows -how the organisms existing at this moment are the -descendants of the victors in the world's greatest -battles. The struggles for life, always keen and -persistent, shared in by every individual organism, -both animal and vegetable, are the instigators of -all progress in the natural world. They are -nature's means for the attainment of beauty, usefulness, -and perfection.</p> - -<p>The Darwinian theory was based upon the observed -facts that members of any given species are -not alike, while their offspring may differ in numerous -ways from their parents. The data furnished -by zoölogy, botany, physiology, and other sciences -supply overwhelming evidence that the present -species of animals and plants have arisen through -the modification from various causes of many pre-existing -species. The organisms with which we are -familiar owe their characteristics to the accumulation -of a long series of changes similar to those -that we may see that they are still undergoing.</p> - -<p>The methods pursued in studying variation in -species, and its important accompaniment, heredity, -consists in comparison, statistical examinations, -cultural experiments, and crossbreeding.</p> - -<p>Evolution is the process of differentiation accompanying -the operations of nature. All the great -naturalists before Darwin's time noted facts indicating -this universal differentiation, but it required -the particularly wide sweep of Darwin's mind to -phrase and demonstrate it.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_152" id="Page_152">[Pg 152]</a></span></p> - -<p>The law of origin by evolution, as Herbert -Spencer showed, is not confined to the method of -bringing into existence new species of animals and -plants. The stars, planets, the geological strata and -earth contours and forms, human institutions, -social customs, and practically everything in nature -are obedient to it.</p> - -<p>Much research work in evolution has been done -since Darwin stated his theory, but the basic principle -of the survival of the fittest remains untouched -by criticism. Some of his views respecting -minor details of selection and the effects of various -factors have been modified or enlarged, and many -new evolutionary forces have been discovered. It -has also been found that a single cause is usually -followed by more than one effect.</p> - -<p>Weissmann has drawn attention to the importance -of adaptations. Most organic beings are -usually closely fitted for the conditions under which -their lives are spent.</p> - -<p>The principal parts of every animal and plant, -and all the points in which one species differs from -a nearly related species, have been shown to have -arisen on account of their usefulness to the creatures -possessing them. As natural selection is always -progressive, it follows that no adaptation is ever -perfect. There is always progress from the useful -to the more useful—a continual striving for greater -beauty of form and color and higher efficiency.</p> - -<p>Works on evolution furnish an abundance of -interesting evidence showing how adaptation -works. A single instance may be cited here.</p> - -<p>One of the Mexican yucca plants common in our -Southern States is pollinated by a moth of the -Pronuba family. This moth is adapted for its<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_153" id="Page_153">[Pg 153]</a></span> -work by several special organs including a special -ovipositor and peculiar maxillary tentacles which -are not found in other moths. The female moth -collects pollen with these tentacles from several -yucca flowers, rolls it into a ball and kneads it into -a pellet. When the pellet is ready the moth seeks -an unvisited flower and, after depositing a few of -her own eggs in the ovary, she climbs the style and -forces the pollen pellet into the stigma. This is -the way the yucca is pollinated and fertilized. Two -important purposes are served by this arrangement: -a species of plant and a species of moth, -together with those dependent upon them, are -enabled to survive by this moth's activities. There -are many known cases of similar cooperative adaptation -to living conditions.</p> - -<p>Quetelet, in 1845, followed by Francis Goltin and -Karl Pearson, have applied statistical methods in -dealing with evolutionary problems, and a new -science called biometry has been developed. This -science has yielded much important data regarding -the effects of inherited characteristics.</p> - -<p>The studies of variations in plants by mutations, -made by the Dutch botanist De Vries, have opened -up wide fields of study regarding the causes of -variation. He has shown that increased bulk or -better coloration may result from improved nutrition -and more light, and that such improved characteristics -may be inherited.</p> - -<p>A law of ancestral heredity has been worked out -for men by biometricians, and this has been confirmed -by the experiments of Professor Johannsen, -of Copenhagen, on self-fertilizing beans, and by -Jennings on protozoa. This hypothesis suggests -that every ancestor of a particular man or woman<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_154" id="Page_154">[Pg 154]</a></span> -contributes its quota to the heritable qualities displayed -by that individual. The average amount of -resemblance between an individual and any of his -particular ancestors is capable of being numerically -expressed.</p> - -<p>The experiments and conclusions of Gregor Mendel -(1822-1882) tend to oppose the law of ancestral -heredity, but it is believed that any exceptional -cases may be explained by the operation of special -conditions.</p> - -<p>Karl Pearson has shown by the analyses of -numerous statistical records of Englishmen that by -artificial selection any selected characteristic, such -as facial contour or stature, can be changed within -a few generations. But when the character has -been changed about 90 per cent within a short time -another method must be employed, because the -original one then becomes less efficient.</p> - -<p>Individuals in any given population who differ -in size from the mean of the population give rise -to offspring which differs from that mean value in -the same direction but to a smaller extent. The -same law applies to the color of the hair or to intelligence -or constitution. Selection will always produce -a change in the average character of a population -taken as a whole. But selection within a -pure line, or one which shows only normal variability -about a mean or type value, does not produce -marked changes.</p> - -<p>The usual selection within any particular population -consists in the partial separation of extreme -types.</p> - -<p>The personal characteristics of any ancestor do -not influence his descendants.

This may -affect the whole or parts of an organ. Major symmetry -involves the whole organism and minor symmetry -only an organ or part.

Therefore by following back the history -of any animal or plant we will arrive at a stage -when its ancestors had only one cell. Every animal<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_156" id="Page_156">[Pg 156]</a></span> -or plant which is propagated sexually actually -starts as a cell and develops through its main evolutionary -changes in the embryonic state. Cells are -liable to all the evolutionary changes that the organism -as a whole is subject to.</p> - -<p>Studies of embryology have shown that the -fusion of biparental reproductive cells results in the -formation of a complete new individual which, at -the time of the fusing of the two conjugating cells, -called gametes, or germ cells, inherits the characteristics -of each parent and its ancestors.</p> - -<p>The determination of the sex of the cell, plant, -or animal, depends upon the presence of extra -male or female sex-chromosomes, or sex-determinant -fibers of the cell nucleus. Certain animals -and plants transmit male characteristics to the -female descendants, while the female transmits her -characteristics to the male descendants. There are -many variations of this kind. These strange movements -in heredity are explained by the laws governing -chromosomes and idio-chromosomes and elementary -cells.</p> - -<p>According to the germ plasm theory of inheritance, -the separate parts of living organisms are -assumed to be represented by separate material -particles in the germ cells. In the Mendelian -theory each cell is assumed to contain a large number -of <em>ids</em>, or complete sets of sex determinants, -half the total being derived from each parent. This -permits the germ cells to contain a certain number -of ids from each parent.</p> - -<p>Studies of these subjects show that the great -harmonies of the natural world are manifested in -form, number, pattern, and color, which we find -to be basically simple and, when studied systemati<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_157" id="Page_157">[Pg 157]</a></span>cally, -they appear quite clearly, so as to be capable -of being described and expressed as laws.</p> - -<p>The study of the agencies under social control -which may improve, or impair, the racial qualities -of future generations, either physically, socially, -or mentally, is called the science of eugenics. -This new science is another outgrowth of the revolution -in intellectual development originating with -the publication of Darwin's theory. Sir Francis -Galton was the pioneer worker, and he has been -followed by Pearson, Yule, Lombroso (1836-1909), -and others.</p> - -<p>Eugenic studies, confirmed by those of genetics -and biometry, show that the human race, which is -the masterpiece of Nature's evolutionary processes, -is capable of much further development -through the careful guiding of the very forces -used in evolving man to his present state.

The measure -of what man has done is a good criterion of -what he is capable of doing under the guidance and -encouragement of science.</p> - -<p>Genetics, the study of the hereditary phenomena -of organisms, is based upon the law of inheritance -discovered by Mendel in 1865. This law relates to -the inheritance of certain definite characters called -allelomorphs. These characters are found to group -themselves in pairs which exhibit more or less -antagonistic qualities. A knowledge of these characteristics -is necessary to conduct selective breeding -experiments scientifically. It is found that -when two similar germ cells, each bearing the same -new combination of allelomorphs, meet in fertiliza<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_158" id="Page_158">[Pg 158]</a></span>tion, -they result in the development of a new -zygotic combination of a pure type which breeds -true. This accounts for the establishment of new -species. When, on the other hand, the coupling is -unequal, or only partial, there will be irregularities -in the characters of the offspring and no new -species is likely to develop. Immense value is -attached to this law by naturalists working in all -fields.

Yet chemistry -is a new science. Practically it began with Robert -Boyle, in England, in 1661. Boyle conducted experiments -on the rarefaction of air and the nature -of gases, and in his book, "The Sceptical Chemist," -he made this remarkable statement: "I am apt to -think that men will never be able to explain the -phenomena of nature, while they endeavor to deduce -them only from the presence and proportions -of such or such ingredients, and consider such ingredients -or elements as bodies in a state of rest; -whereas, indeed, the greatest part of the affections -of matter, and consequently of the phenomena of -nature, seem to depend upon the motion and contrivance -of the small parts of bodies."</p> - -<p>Thus Boyle anticipated the chemical theories of -matter developed in the nineteenth century.</p> - -<p>Lavoisier, about 1777, advancing from the quantitative -study of one chemical change to another was -able to describe many processes, and to distinguish -between an element and a compound.

The -great scientific discoveries of the eighteenth century -had carried people away to such an extent that -they showed a tendency to exaggerate their -bearings upon medicine. The result was a -wild diffusion of extravagant speculation and -unsubstantial hypotheses.</p> - -<p>One of the leading physicians of the eighteenth -century, who wielded broad influence throughout -Europe, was Herman Boerhaave (1668-1738). His -work, entitled "Aphorismi," published in Leyden, -1709, was immensely popular. It was translated -into all the European and several Asiatic languages. -His reputation now depends upon his -chemical discoveries and his medical teachings.</p> - -<p>One of the most brilliant students of Boerhaave's -medical school was Albrecht von Haller (1708-77). -Haller published many medical works and monographs. -His "Elements of Human Physiology," -(1759-66) is the best known. The function of bile -in the digestion of fats, the demonstration of Glisson's -hypothesis that irritability in an excised -muscle is a specific property of all living tissues, -and several theories explaining the heart's activities, -were among his best contributions to medical -science.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_179" id="Page_179">[Pg 179]</a></span></p> - -<p>The discovery of the existence of lacteal and -lymphatic vessels in birds, reptiles, and fish brought -William Hewson into prominence and secured -him membership in the Royal Society. He published -his monograph on the coagulation of the -blood in 1771.</p> - -<p>William Cumberland Cruikshank (1745-1800) -investigated the surgery of the nerves, the functioning -of the Fallopian tubes, the physiology of -absorption.</p> - -<p>The electrical discoveries of Galvani, Volta, -Benjamin Franklin, Henly and others caused much -experimenting with the electric current in the -treatment of muscular diseases.</p> - -<p>The Monros, father, son and grandson, by their -wonderful teaching abilities, caused the medical -teaching center of Europe to be transferred from -Leyden to Edinburgh in 1720. These men, and -many of their students, did brilliant work in all -branches of medicine.</p> - -<p>The medical school which they so established in -Edinburgh University still maintains its great -reputation.</p> - -<p>The best anatomists of the eighteenth century -were Cheselden, Pott, the Monros, the Hunters, -Desault, and Scarpa. Their work was largely topographical. -Surgical anatomy started with the -writings of Joseph Lieutaud (1703-1780), Albinus, -Eisenmann, Soemmering, Mascagni, Sandifort, -and Caldani.</p> - -<p>The anatomical textbooks in use in the year 1800 -gave general accounts of the body's structure and -included current theories of the functions of organs -and their relationships to injuries and disease. -More than half of the chapters were occupied with<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_180" id="Page_180">[Pg 180]</a></span> -morbid anatomy and the recital of cases. The -anatomy of the tissues and finer structures -was neglected because the microscopes of the -period were little better than simple lenses.</p> - -<p>Physiology was studied by all medical students, -but the science was so badly developed that it -never stood alone. For many years it formed a -part of studies in anatomy. Early in the nineteenth -century it began to expand, and in 1846 -physiology was taught as a separate subject for -the first time at Guy's hospital, London, by Sir -William Gull. Before that it was taught by the -professors of midwifery. It was the great developments -made in chemistry and physics, referred to -in previous chapters, that pushed physiology to the -front as an important branch of medical science.</p> - -<p>Denman's "Introduction to the Practice of Midwifery," -the work of the greatest living authority -at the time of its publication in 1805, shows that -gynecology hardly existed at that time.</p> - -<p>Anesthetics and antiseptics, together with the -systematic employment of abdominal and bimanual -palpation, all were revolutionary discoveries of the -nineteenth century, unknown when Denman presided -over the obstetric department of the Middlesex -Hospital.</p> - -<p>When the nineteenth century opened, medical -men were unaware of the value of auscultation and -percussion. They were familiar with the symptoms -of fevers and with diseases of the heart and -chest, but they had no means of determining -differences between them. Textbooks of that time -show that the now common forms of heart disease -were known only from post-mortem inspections. -But they distinctly state that physicians were<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_181" id="Page_181">[Pg 181]</a></span> -unable to determine, in case of changes in stricture -of the heart's valves, what part was affected. The -seat of disease in heart and chest troubles could -not be located.</p> - -<p>Parasitology was no better advanced. Books -published as late as 1810 indicated that parasites, -like hydatids, threadworms, etc., were very puzzling -phenomena to the physician.</p> - -<p>The status of surgery throughout the eighteenth -century was very low. The best work was done in -France and Holland, until Cheselden, the Hunters, -the Monros, and Abernethy established their -schools in England and Scotland. German medical -practitioners were barbers until after the army -authorities formed the Medico-Chirurgical Pépinière -in Berlin in 1785. There were several good -medical schools in the United States in 1800 -including those of the King's College, New York, -and of the Harvard, Dartmouth, and Philadelphia -Colleges, and the University of Pennsylvania. -There were also numerous medical societies. -European medical and surgical textbooks were -used like those of Cheselden, Monro, Haller, Boerhaave -and Sydenham. Medical practice was on the -same plane in America as in Europe. There were -many patent remedies used, but the authorities -recognized the importance of regulating the practice -of medicine. Regulation acts were passed in -New York City in 1760, New Jersey in 1772, and -a general quarantine act was enacted by Congress -in 1799.</p> - -<p>The modernization of medicine was brought -about to a large extent by the publication of the -"Conservation of Energy" by Helmholtz, in 1847, -and Darwin's "Origin of Species," in 1859. These<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_182" id="Page_182">[Pg 182]</a></span> -books cleared away completely the myths and -legends which had surrounded medicine at earlier -periods, and taught medical students the strict need -of proceeding entirely upon scientific grounds precisely -as chemists, physicists, engineers, and others -were already doing with wonderful success. Darwin's -biological teachings appealed very strongly -to medical men and influenced all their activities.</p> - -<p>Virchow's "Cellular Pathology," published in 1858, -Huxley's textbooks on "Physiology" (1866) and on -"Vertebrate and Invertebrate Anatomy" (1871-77) -Haeckel's "General Morphology" (1866), and numerous -medical encyclopedias and textbooks on practice -and special diseases were the result of the new -scientific spirit. New medical associations were -formed and these promoted discussions, the reporting -of observations, and the publication of -innumerable monographs. Medical journals and -magazines of a high character did fine educational -work.</p> - -<p>The investigations on fermentation and putrefaction -made in France by Pasteur caused Joseph -Lister, professor of surgery at Glasgow University, -to reflect upon the great mortality witnessed daily -in the hospitals from pyæmia, erysipelas, tetanus, -septicemia, gangrene, and other similar diseases. -He observed that in spite of his great care to maintain -scrupulous cleanliness in treating wounds, -45 per cent of his surgical cases were mortal. -Pasteur's dictum that putrefaction is a micro-organic -phenomenon, caused Lister to experiment -with the view of preventing the development of -microorganisms in wounds. Beginning with weak -solutions of zinc chloride and zinc sulphite, he -accidentally tried carbolic acid, securing surprising<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_183" id="Page_183">[Pg 183]</a></span> -results, and two years later, in 1867, he published -his monograph on antiseptic surgery which -instantly became world-famous. Lister, instead of -being carried away by the celebrity he attained, -turned his attention to the scientific development of -his important discovery. He investigated lactic-acid -fermentation, the relation of bacteria to flesh -inflammations and to the best methods of treating -wounds antiseptically.</p> - -<p>Lister, however, was not the first to employ antiseptics -in the treatment of wounds, and his great -contribution to medical practice was due to the -systematic manner in which he experimented. He -was not a brilliant surgeon, but a deliberate and -careful one whose chief desire was to have the -patient recover. His whole surgical career was -guided by this principle which proved so successful -that before his death the whole medical profession -saluted him as master, and when he died, rejoiced -that his remains were entombed in Westminster -Abbey.</p> - -<p>Theodor Billroth was one of Lister's greatest -disciples. He introduced Lister's methods into continental -surgery and through their use improved -the treatment of wounds and opened up new fields -in the surgery of the alimentary tract. He was the -first to make a resection of the esophagus and -pylorus and to excise the larynx.</p> - -<p>Mikulicz-Rodecki, a Pole, was Billroth's chief -assistant. He was also a pioneer in Lister's practice. -Specializing on the surgery of the alimentary -organs, he promoted antiseptic methods and introduced -the modern modes of exploring the esophagus -and stomach. He was also a master in the -treatment of diseases of the mouth.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_184" id="Page_184">[Pg 184]</a></span></p> - -<p>Felix Guyon applied Lister's system to surgical -treatment of the genitourinary ailments, and -became a leader in this class of surgery. Bernard -Naunyn, a well-known German writer on surgery, -became a leading authority on diabetes and diseases -of the liver and pancreas. Jean Martin -Charcot made the Salpêtrière Hospital, Paris, the -greatest of the world's neurological clinics. He -was also a great authority on diseases of the -biliary passages and kidneys. Sir James Paget, -Sir Jonathan Hutchinson, Sir William Gull, Jenner, -Wilks, Spencer Wells, and Clifford Allbutt, besides -doing much by their writings to advance the -practice of medicine, all closely allied themselves -with large hospitals, giving as much attention -to the hospitals as to the treatment of disease. -Modern hospitals are largely due to their pioneering -work.</p> - -<p>Louis Pasteur's studies in fermentation led to the -discovery of lactic-acid bacteria and this was the -starting point for a number of revolutionary discoveries -in bacterial diseases. Infectious diseases -were placed in new categories by his work.</p> - -<p>The etiology of traumatic infectious diseases was -advanced by the researches of Robert Koch (1843-1910). -His work in discovering the cholera vibrio, -the microorganisms of Oriental ophthalmia and his -researches on the nature and treatment of tuberculosis, -made his name known everywhere. His -isolation of the tuberculosis germ in 1882, and that -of Asiatic cholera in 1884, were leading steps -toward the discovery of a great number of disease -germs.</p> - -<p>Fevers, like typhus, typhoid, yellow fever, and -malaria, a few generations ago, took a great annual<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_185" id="Page_185">[Pg 185]</a></span> -toll of lives. The work of the men mentioned above, -Lister, Pasteur, Koch, and the French physiologist, -Claude Bernard, gave medical men the means of -curbing the ravages of these diseases so that to-day -they are incidental annoyances rather than human -scourges.</p> - -<p>The germ of typhoid fever was discovered in -1880 by Eberth. The cocci of pneumonia were -isolated by Frankel in 1886.</p> - -<p>Modern surgery has been greatly facilitated by -the employment of numerous anesthetics, chemicals -which possess the power of inducing local or general -insensibility. Soporific drugs have been used in -surgical operations since the remotest antiquity, -but modern practices in the employment of anesthetics -followed the discoveries of Faraday in 1818. -He described the properties of nitrous oxide, or -ether and other gases in that year and suggested -their use in medicine.</p> - -<p>John Godman (1822), James Jackson (1833), and -Drs. Wood and Bache (1834) were among American -medical men who made use of Faraday's -suggestions. Dr. Horace Wells, a dentist at Hartford, -Connecticut, used ether in 1844. Two years -later W. T. Morton, a dentist in Boston, employed -it successfully. Chloroform was described as a -useful anesthetic by Dr. Flourens, of Paris, in -1847, the year in which Sir James Simpson -introduced ether as an anesthetic in obstetric -practice.</p> - -<p>Mesmer introduced hypnosis into medical practice -about 1777, and in 1784 Benjamin Franklin -reported favorably on the medical value of what -he called magnetic sleep. Alexandre Bertrand, -about 1831, described the nature of hypnosis and<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_186" id="Page_186">[Pg 186]</a></span> -in 1841 James Braid employed it in his English -medical practice. The employment of hypnosis -has not become general, although it is recognized -that in certain nervous troubles there is a field -for it.</p> - -<p>Among other American medical men who advanced -their science in the past were James Marion -Sims (1813-1883) and Thomas Emmet, who -acquired wide fame for successful methods of operating -in obstetric diseases. William Beaumont -(1785-1853) investigated the offices of the gastric -juice and devised treatment for digestive -troubles. John Shaw Billings served his profession -by compiling, with the assistance of Robert -Fletcher, an Index Catalogue of the Surgeon General's -library, Washington.</p> - -<p>Pharmacology is as old as medicine. The medicinal -qualities of herbs, roots, and gums were known -to primitive man. There have been herbalists and -druggists in all important communities at all times. -Scientific pharmacology, however, is just as new as -modern medicine. Cordus published a pharmacopÅ“ia, -which listed drugs in use in 1535. Since -that time many such works have appeared. The -second of the Monros of Edinburgh University -Medical School, Magendie, and Claude Bernard -placed pharmacy upon a scientific basis. They -followed scientific methods used by Fontana in -Florence in 1765 in studying the effects of snake -poisons. Pareira's "Elements of Materia Medica" -was the leading textbook in 1842. This work -gave very brief accounts of the physiological -effects of drugs. The physiological values were -not properly appreciated until about twenty years -later.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_187" id="Page_187">[Pg 187]</a></span></p> - -<p>Drugs are now scientifically classified and prepared, -the full resources of science being used -in their manufacture. American chemists have -invented machinery and methods of preparing new -drugs. Citrate of magnesia was invented by Henry -Blair, of Philadelphia.

It was -only as recently as 1844 that Morse introduced -electric telegraphy. The telephone was introduced -by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876 and Edison built -one of his early dynamos in 1878 and in 1879 made -his first high resistance incandescent lamp for -parallel operation. The first Edison power and -lighting station was opened at 257 Pearl Street, New -York City, in 1882.</p> - -<p>Although electrical phenomena were understood -in a general way thousands of years ago, they were -not studied and applied to practical purposes until -the sixteenth century when William Gilbert carried -out his classical experiments in the reign of Queen -Elizabeth. The Leyden jar was discovered in the -early half of the eighteenth century. From experiments -carried out with these jars a great number -of important inventions were derived and our -knowledge of electricity was for many years dependent -upon researches of this kind. Benjamin -Franklin in experimenting with the Leyden jar -found that its electrical discharges were similar to -those of lightning and he subsequently discovered -that the inner part of the jar, when charged with<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_189" id="Page_189">[Pg 189]</a></span> -a frictional current, was positively electrical while -the outer portion was negative.</p> - -<p>The voltaic pile was invented in 1796 as a result -of Galvani's experiments in physiological electricity -and Sir Humphry Davy exhibited the first practical -electrical lamp before the Royal Society in 1809. -The dynamo was, in substance, invented by Faraday, -and described by him before the Royal Society in -1831. This was, perhaps, the greatest of all electrical -triumphs because it gave engineers a practical -means of generating and using electrical currents -of any desired dimensions. Bunsen in 1840 devised -a means for making carbon rods for arc lamps, and -Edison made practical carbon incandescent lamp -filaments in 1879. Faraday's invention promoted all -of these lighting discoveries.</p> - -<p>The engine-driven electric dynamo was made a -practical machine in 1870 and thenceforward became -the source of power of a great multitude -of secondary machines, such as electric street cars, -marine engines, power plants, and forging hammers.</p> - -<p>A new and profitable field was opened for the -use of electricity by the invention of the electric -furnace. Sir Humphry Davy produced his electric -arc in 1808 and was greatly impressed with its fusing -properties. He melted many metals with the -arc and found that it fused platinum just as easily -as an ordinary tallow candle melts beeswax. The -electric furnace, which is now extensively used in -chemical and metallurgical works, is simply a large -electric arc provided with means for containing the -heat. Furnaces lined with carbon are now heated -to over 4,000 degrees centigrade.</p> - -<p>When the electrical manufacture of aluminum on -a large scale was started at Niagara, Dr. Edward<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_190" id="Page_190">[Pg 190]</a></span> -Acheson, who was impressed by the industrial needs -of cheap abrasives, accidentally discovered that by -heating a piece of porcelain to a high temperature -in an electric furnace and bringing it in contact with -pure carbon, the carbon was rendered very hard. -In 1891 he carried on experiments with high -currents and a mixture of ground coke and sand. -He found a method of fusing these so that the -oxygen of the sand passed off with carbon in the -form of carbonic acid gas, and the reduced metallic -silicon combined with an equal atomic weight of -carbon and produced a new body which he named -carborundum. The success met with in making -carborundum led to the devising of a method of -manufacturing artificial graphite in the electric -furnace. A soft, non-coalescing graphite was made -in 1906. This is extensively used in lubricating -heavy machinery.</p> - -<p>Dr. Acheson produced the first chemically pure -artificial carbon in his electric furnace in 1911. -By using pressure during consolidation this carbon -may eventually be converted into diamonds.</p> - -<p>Another valuable product of the electric furnace, -acetylene gas, was discovered in Dublin by -Edmund Davy in 1836. Subsequently numerous -chemists discovered means for making carbides. -T. Sterry Hunt, an American chemist, observed in -1886 that oxides of the alkaline metals and of -calcium, magnesium, aluminum, silicon, and boron -could be reduced in the electric furnace in the -presence of carbon and could be alloyed with other -metals. He also found that silicon and acetylene -could be made that way.</p> - -<p>T. L. Wilson, a Canadian engineer, in attempting -to make aluminum bronze in an electric furnace,<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_191" id="Page_191">[Pg 191]</a></span> -devised an experiment for reducing lime with -carbon. He found that this produced calcium carbide -and secured a patent for the invention in 1892. -Variations of this process are now used for manufacturing -nitrogen and nitrates from atmospheric -nitrogen.</p> - -<p>Wireless developments have resulted from the -work of many separate investigators. K. A. Steenheil -in 1838 used the earth return in live telegraphy and -suggested the possibility of wireless telegraphy. -Joseph Henry produced the first high-frequency oscillations -in America in 1840. Lord Kelvin in 1853 -enunciated the mathematical principles governing -uncoupled electrical oscillatory circuits. Joseph -Heyworth patented a wireless telegraphic process in -1862. Clark Maxwell in 1867 predicted the existence -of electromagnetic radiations and these were demonstrated -by Hertz in 1887. Hughes discovered -the phenomena of the coherer and Branby used -Hughes's coherer for wireless wave detection in -1892. A. E. Dolbear secured United States patents -for a system of wireless telegraphy using aerials -in 1886. Sir Oliver Lodge described his wireless -system before the Royal Society in 1894 and in the -same year Popoff issued descriptions of his wireless -system.</p> - -<p>Wireless telegraphy became commercially practicable -in 1897 when G. Marconi secured the promotion -of the Wireless Telegraph and Signal Company -in England. Marconi succeeded in turning -to commercial account a long series of brilliant discoveries -in electricity, and this success has led to -numerous kindred discoveries. De Forest's three-electrode -thermionic detector, known as an Audion, -invented in 1907 and improved in 1911 by Lieben -and Reiss, in 1913 by Meisser and in 1914 by -Langmuir, opened up great possibilities for sound -transmission by wireless telephony.</p> - -<p>The electric deposition and refining of metals have -been referred to in previous chapters. Many industries -are based upon these. Niepce produced -commercially successful photographs in 1838. -Earlier, in 1824, he had etched plates for printing -and in that year published his photo-engraving of -Cardinal d'Amboise. Fox Talbot patented a mixture -of gelatine and bichromate of potash to take the -place of the bitumen used by Niepce as a plate coating. -Gillot found in 1872 that Fox Talbot's method -of making intaglio plates could also be used for making -relief blocks. In 1885-1886, F. E. Ives sealed -two single-line screws together and made a new fine -cross-line screen, which resulted in the development -of the half-tone process. Ives at this time also developed -the three-color photo-engraving process.</p> - -<p>Photography and photo-engraving are so widely -used and are so intimately connected with our -civilization that few people now realize that the -great industries based upon them are the results -of a few scientific discoveries of a couple of American -and European scientists made only a generation -or two ago.</p> - -<div class="figcenter" style="width: 700px;"><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_192" id="Page_192">[Pg 192]</a></span> -<img src="images/illus217a.jpg" width="700" height="555" alt="" /> -<div class="caption"><p>GIFTS FOR TUTANKHAMEN BROUGHT BY HUY, VICEROY -OF ETHIOPIA.

These -were the immediate pioneers of the discovery of the -cathode rays and the other great radio discoveries -of recent years. Crookes, remembering Faraday's -suggestions concerning a fourth state of matter, -expressed the opinion, in 1885, that the matter constituting -cathode rays is neither solid, gaseous, or -liquid, but in a fourth state which transcends the -gaseous condition.

Scientific discoveries came so -quickly at the end of the last century that a recasting -and readjusting of scientific conceptions had to -be undertaken. This process was in progress when -the World War began. The world-wide disturbance -led to temporary scientific infertility except in such -directions as served the purposes of war. But -therein science became allied more closely than ever -before with certain branches of industry, and the -cooperation thus established has been recognized in -all civilized countries as of the utmost value to the -future progress of mankind.</p> - -<p>The philosophic thought of each era generally -develops in harmony with social and intellectual -conditions. The philosophical doctrines of the -leading writers may, therefore, be taken as representative -of the spirit of their age. When Darwin -in the middle of the last century published his doctrines -of evolution, of the struggle for existence and -the influences of living conditions upon survival of -species, philosophy turned away from the utilitarianism -and tolerance of Hamilton, Hume, and Mill -and the positivism of the French to the synthetic -evolutionism of Herbert Spencer. One of the basic -teachings of Spencer was the relativity of knowledge. -The process of thinking involves relation,<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_196" id="Page_196">[Pg 196]</a></span> -difference, and likeness. This is merely relationing. -Therefore no thought can ever express more than -relations. The primary act of thought through -which we discover likeness and difference underlies -all our knowledge.</p> - -<p>A reaction against this new empiricism began in -1898, when William James published his "Philosophical -Conceptions and Practical Results." This -work popularized the philosophy of pragmatism -which denies the absoluteness or ultimateness of -the traditional antithesis between theory and practice -and relies for its justification upon the fact that -everything which we think about, and do, must first -be willed. Reality consists in pure experience quite -independent of thought. Bergson developed this -philosophy of practicalism further and taught that -knowledge of reality comes through intuition and -that life is merely intuitive knowledge. Intuition, -is deeper than scientific reason because it feels, and -links us with, the eternal processes of nature.</p> - -<p>Philosophic thought is now temporarily influenced -by the revival of an old principle known as -the principle of relativity. The popular name for -this is the Einstein theory, because in 1905 Albert -Einstein, working on some theories developed by -Lorentz and Fitzgerald, published his first principle -of relativity which suggested that the velocity of -light is constant, however the position of an -observer may vary and that space and time are -variable. In 1917 Einstein enlarged this idea in -order to include all the laws of nature.</p> - -<p>Space and time are treated as just mental concepts. -They lack the concreteness of matter, but -they compose the framing of the universe and give -it form and continuity. Consequently we see so<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_197" id="Page_197">[Pg 197]</a></span> -much of them that we attribute reality to them. -The theory of relativity suggests that time is not -continuous. There is no identity of instants at -different places. The present instant really does -not extend beyond this immediate point. At other -points there are instants older, younger, and contemporaneous -with this instant. They are, however, -quite distinct from this one. In order for an -instant to be simultaneous it would be necessary -that it should occur at the same point.</p> - -<p>An object or event gains its substance and form -from activities of our minds. Any meaning or significance -that an object or event has is also derived -from our minds. The reality of the universe is an -activity, or series of activities, which are manifested -in life and mind.</p> - -<p>The relativity of space is illustrated by an -example given by Professor Henri Poincaré. Assume -that I meet you in Wall Street, New York, and say, -"I will meet you here again at this time to-morrow." -You promise to do so. But you could not keep such -a promise except with regard to position on the -surface of the earth, because between now and to-morrow -the earth will have moved over an enormous -distance carrying Wall Street and a great -mass of other things with it. The sun also will have -moved away the stars, carrying the earth with it.</p> - -<p>Another interesting mental picture is drawn by -Professor Herbert Wildon Carr to illustrate the -philosophical meaning of the principle of relativity. -Suppose that on a very frosty morning we were to -see a watery vapor in the air we breathe condense -into a little cloud and after floating around a while -gradually disappear and become reabsorbed in the -atmosphere. Assume that at the moment of this<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_198" id="Page_198">[Pg 198]</a></span> -reabsorption we should undergo an instantaneous -transformation of all our proportions so that our -new dimensions become infinitesimal in comparison -with our former state. Do you think that we would -recognize the fact that we had changed? The -theory of relativity declares that we would not -know what had happened, because with the alteration -in proportions the ratios would remain constant. -The change would express itself in the new -dimensions of objects around us. The little globules -of water composing the little cloud would now -appear like stars and planets occupying immense -areas in distant spaces, far apart from each other, -and all undergoing a slow age-long evolution. Such -a change would be signalized as a new time and a -new space.</p> - -<p>Yet the principle of relativity does not appear to -our physical senses to represent a truth of nature. -It is noteworthy that the principle of relativity is -usually invoked when conditions are unstable, when -thought is confused, and when a period of readjustment -is in progress. Thus the Einstein theory may -be representative of present-day harmonies, but yet -may prove, in the future, to have been merely a -passing philosophic mood.</p> - -<p>Bagehot, a shrewd observer, writing in 1868 -about the changes wrought by Darwin's evolutionary -theory, said: "There is scarcely a department of -science or art which is the same, or at all the same, -as it was fifty years ago. A new world of inventions -has grown up around us which we cannot help -seeing; a new world of ideas is in the air, and affects -us though we do not see it." Those were very true -words more than half a century ago, yet they serve -to describe present conditions!</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_199" id="Page_199">[Pg 199]</a></span></p> -<div class="chapter"></div> -<hr class="chap" /> -
