Excerpt from Science Lectures for the People Mr. Chairman, my friends - (began the Professor) - Encouraged by the success of the experiment which was tried last spring with the endeavour of imparting to you some portion of know ledge Of science, and arousing some interest in scientific facts and reasonings, I have come again this autumn in the hope that we may have as successful a series of meetings as we had in the previous spring. I have been assisted most kindly by Dr. Alcock and Dr. Morgan who have volunteered courses on Natural History and on Physiology. These lectures will be giyea at a later period. Although it may be necessary in Manchester to speak Of the advantage of scientific reasoning, of the importance of scientific investigation, yet on the results of science it is almost needless for me to dwell. Let us only look at one of the real wonders of the world lately accomplished - tihe Atlantic Telegraph. How important for all of us, for every man and woman in England, to really understand Something about the principles by means Of which we are able to talk with our friends in New York! I might turn toa thousand other important applications of know ledge in the present day, in which you would find the same interest and the same necessity for a knowledge Of the principles Of science. And these principles are not so abstruse or so difficult but that they may be mastered by all who have the will to do it.

Excerpt from Scientific Lectures IN these days of limited leisure, and continually increasing literary activity, when there is more and more that every intelligent man would wish to read, and apparently less and less time for'reading, an apology is required for the publication of a book, however small, which does not profess to contain anything absolutely new. At the same time, the very circum stances above referred to, render it desirable that the observations of specialists should be condensed and epitomized for the general reader, and hence the continually increasing demand for lectures; which freed not, because they are popular, be the less truly scientific.

Excerpt from Popular Science Lectures, Vol. 3: Season of 1924-1925, Presented by Members of the Faculty of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy and Science The third volume of Popular Science Talks, is issued in compliance with requests which have come from many quarters, and in view of the pleasing reception given to the first and second volumes. Especially have these requests come from public libraries and from high schools, Where, in some instances, the books have been used in the chemistry and science reading courses. The lectures which constitute the volume represent the effort of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy and Science to contribute to the educational welfare of the community at large by means of popular scientific discussions.

Excerpt from Popular Lectures on Scientific Subjects The first and second Lectures have already appeared in print; the first in a university programme which, however, was not published. The second appeared in the 'kieler Monatsschrift' for May, 1853, but owing to the restricted circulation of that journal, became but little known; both have, accordingly, been reprinted. The third and fourth Lectures have not previously appeared. These Lectures, called forth as they have been by incidental occasions, have not, of course, been composed in accordance with a rigidly uniform plan. Each of them has been kept perfectly independent of the others. Hence some amount of repetition has been unavoidable, and the first four may perhaps seem somewhat confusedly thrown together. If I may claim that they have any leading thought, it would be that I have endeavoured to illustrate the essence and the import of Natural laws, and their relation to the mental activity of man. This seems to me the chief interest and the chief need in Lectures before a public whose education has been mainly literary.
