Excerpt from The Teaching of Science
The title of the book requires a word of explana tion. The addresses were, for the most part, de livered to teachers of physics and chemistry. Why then should not the title be The Teaching of Phys ical Science? Although the illustrations were of necessity chosen mostly from physical science, the addresses were a constant appeal to all science teachers to teach science rather than special sciences.
The addresses are arranged in chronological rather than logical order. Although the same theme is often repeated, the treatment is progressive as befits the history of the growth of certain ideas among teachers.
