Book Description
Excerpt from The Scientific Bases of Faith The present work was promised in the preface of my work on "Habit and Intelligence," which was published in the summer of 1869. When that preface was written, I hoped to publish the present work at the end of 1870: but it has been delayed by my feeling it a duty to take an active part in the re-organization of the Church of Ireland after its disestablishment: and I have not the power which I admire in some men of getting rapidly through a great quantity of work. The only words of explanation or defence which I design to prefix to this book concern the way in which I have treated the authority of the Holy Scriptures: for it is possible that some whom I may hope to influence might otherwise be repelled by what they may think inconsistent if not insincere language on that subject. As this work is not a treatise on the historical authorities of revelation, the preface is the best place to meet such objections. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy.

The Science of Energy
Author: Crosbie Smith
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 9780226764207
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 424
Book Description
Although we take it for granted today, the concept of "energy" transformed nineteenth-century physics. In The Science of Energy, Crosbie Smith shows how a North British group of scientists and engineers, including James Joule, James Clerk Maxwell, William and James Thomson, Fleeming Jenkin, and P. G. Tait, developed energy physics to solve practical problems encountered by Scottish shipbuilders and marine engineers; to counter biblical revivalism and evolutionary materialism; and to rapidly enhance their own scientific credibility. Replacing the language and concepts of classical mechanics with terms such as "actual" and "potential" energy, the North British group conducted their revolution in physics so astutely and vigorously that the concept of "energy"—a valuable commodity in the early days of industrialization—became their intellectual property. Smith skillfully places this revolution in its scientific and cultural context, exploring the actual creation of scientific knowledge during one of the most significant episodes in the history of physics.
