Grammar of Science

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. If I have not paid greater attention to my numerous critics, it is not that I have failed to study them; it is simply that I have remained - obstinately it may be - convinced that the views expressed are, relatively to our present state of knowledge, substantially correct. Such changes in form as I have made have been chiefly suggested by further experience in the difficulties which await both pupil and teacher. I can only conclude by expressing a hope that if old friends meet the Grammar in its new form, they will not be displeased by either the superficial changes or the more substantial additions.
