Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from University of Saint Andrews Five Hundredth Anniversary: Memorial Volume of Scientific Papers Contributed by Members of the University
On an occasion like the present even the strict and logical realm of Science cannot but be enveloped by the glamour inseparable from the circumstances which have called forth this book, and in?uenced by the thoughts that arise naturally from the consideration of the great space in time that lies between the rude beginnings of the University and the elaborate development of these later years.
