Excerpt from A Plea for Greater Simplicity in the Language of Science Our knowledge of the mechanism of nature has been undergoing a process of growth, much of which has been sudden. It is not surprising, therefore, that the in completely formed ideas of science should become translated into clumsy language and that inexact thinking should be evi deuced by vagueness of expression. This inexactness is often veiled by the liberal use of sonorous greek-latin words. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
