Preliminary Discourse on the Study of Natural Philosophy

저자 John F. W. Herschel · 17 부 · about 7 hours 42 minutes 읽는 시간

안녕하세요, 저는 Finn입니다. 이 책을 이해할 수 있도록 도와드릴게요.

10살 아이에게 설명하듯 말하면 이렇습니다:

과학은 실제로 어떻게 작동할까요. 유명한 천문학자 존 허셜은 이 친근한 고전에서 답하며, 여기에 서가에 있는 것은 그의 1851년 개정판입니다. 그는 우리가 주의 깊게 관찰하고, 본 것을 분류하고, 원인을 추측하고, 진짜 법칙이 나타날 때까지 추측을 시험하는 방법을 한 걸음씩 설명합니다. 그는 일상생활과 하늘 모두에서 가져온 평범한 예를 씁니다. 다윈은 젊은 시절 이 책을 읽고 그것이 자신의 야심을 자극했다고 말했습니다.
