Description

Excerpt from The Scientific Basis of National Progress: Including That of Morality The book is divided into four chapters, viz 1st. The Scientific basis of Material progress: 2na'. The Scientific basis of Mental and Moral progress 3rd. New truth and its relation to Human progress: and The Promotion of original Scientific Research. As the object of the book is only to call attention to the vast importance of new truth, as as a fundamental source of advance, and how to promote the discovery of it, the essay is written as briefly as possible, and is not offered in any sense as a complete exposition Of the subject, especially the section relating to the Scientific basis of Morality. The leading idea of the Book is that present knowledge only enables us to maintain our present state, that national progress is the result of new ideas, and that the chief source of new ideas is original research) That as advance has its origin in new knowledge; unless new discoveries are made, new inventions and improvements must sooner or later cease. Another prominent idea is, that truth is essentially the same in all divisions of knowledge, and that the mental powers and processes employed in detecting it are the same in all subjects.
