Excerpt from A List of Books on the History of Science: January, 1911
The titles are, in the main, grouped according to the system used in the public card catalogue, except that chronological sub-divisions have been adopted in order to bring together material relating to the history of special periods: the titles themselves are arranged alphabetically within each group, as a chronological sub-arrangement did not seem to serve any particular purpose in this case, whereas the alphabetical arrangement brings together related works by the same author and different editions of the same work.
