Book Description
Excerpt from Who's Who in Science (International), 1912 In the biographical section it has been our policy to lay stress on mature work rather than on the brilliant, but often ephemeral, successes of youth. In consequence, degrees have been relegated to the details of education, while the Fellowship of the Royal Society or of national academies abroad has been given a prominent place next to the name. A word should be said on language and on indexing. Everything except the names of Journals has been translated into its English equivalent. Although a scientist may know one, two, or even several, foreign languages, it is unreasonable to demand acquaintance with the languages of every country represented here. The reader should bear in mind, therefore, that the publications of scientists in foreign countries are not available in English unless a translation is specifically mentioned.
