Abstract
THERE are two ways of popularising science. We may take up one of its great branches and treat it so simply and clearly that even the unscientific reader may with proper attention gain some insight into the principles to which the recent great advances in science have been chiefly due; or we may take up a smaller field and treat it fully and with all its applications in everyday life. He who studies a subject by the latter method will have it constantly brought under his notice, and will thus be led to observe and perhaps to experiment, and to acquire for himself that method of looking at the phenomena of nature and reasoning about them which is necessary to the understanding of every great principle in science, but which is foreign to nearly all who have not had a scientific training.
