Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Anatomy of Science
However, while we are all obliged to keep step in this great social march, there are many of the more individualistic and the more philosophical sort who look back longingly to the days of less elaborate manufacture, when each synthesis could be watched through its various stages, and sometimes even be performed, by the ama teur. To such people, who are interested not so much in the products of science as in its meth ods, I am offering this glimpse of the inside of the scientist's workshop, - his habits, his tools, and his raw materials.
