Excerpt from Outlines of Mineralogy, Geology, and Mineral Analysis, Vol. 1 of 2Mohs has arranged all minerals in what he calls a natural history order. The object of his arrangement is to enable a beginner to discover the name of any mineral contained in the system by its characters, precisely in the same way as in botany or entomology, any plant, or insect, contained in the system may be discovered by attending to its characters. And M. Mohs considers it as a vast advantage to mineralogy to be thus freed from the trammels of Chemistry, by which it has been hitherto hampered.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
