Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from La Langue Scientifique en Belgique
La science n'a pas de patrie. Mais il faut que la patrie ait de la science pour etre habitable aux artisans de la civilisation, et pour justifier son maintien dans l'economie moderne. Des etablissements aussi dispendieux que les Etats europeens sembleraient de facheux anachronismes, n'etaient les progres qu'ils font faire a l'esprit humain. Le plus serieux des budgets, disait Renan, c'est celui de l'instruction publique.
