Dictionary of Scientific Quotations

Science affects us all-in the words of Albert Einstein, "e;The whole of science is nothing more than a refinement of everyday thinking."e; It is therefore fascinating to discover the thoughts of scientists, philosophers, humanists, poets, theologians, politicians, and other miscellaneous mortals on this most important of subjects. A Dictionary of Scientific Quotations is a personal selection of scientific quotations by Professor Alan L Mackay that includes graffiti, lines of song, proverbs, and poetry. Whether you believe that "e;All problems are finally scientific problems"e; (George Bernard Shaw) or that "e;Imagination is more important than knowledge"e; (Einstein), it is without doubt that "e;It is a good thing for an uneducated man to read books of quotations"e; (Churchill). You will be charmed and delighted by this collection and remember, "e;'Why,'"e; said the Dodo, "e;'the best way to explain it is to do it'"e; (Alice in Wonderland, Lewis Carroll).
