Paano ba talaga gumagana ang agham? Sumasagot si John Herschel, isang sikat na astronomo, sa magiliw na klasikong ito, na narito sa kanyang binagong edisyon noong 1851. Ipinaliliwanag niya, hakbang hakbang, kung paano tayo nagmamasid nang maingat, nag aayos ng nakikita natin, nanghuhula ng mga sanhi, at sinusubok ang ating mga hula hanggang sa lumitaw ang mga tunay na batas. Gumagamit siya ng payak na mga halimbawa mula sa pang araw araw na buhay at sa kalangitan. Binasa ni Darwin ang aklat na ito bilang isang binata at sinabing pinukaw nito ang sarili niyang ambisyon.
