Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Evolution of the Scientific Investigator: Opening Address at the International Congress of Arts and Science at the Universal Exposition, St. Louis, September September 19, 1904 As we look at the assemblage gathered in this hall, comprising so many names of widest renown in every branch of learning - we might almost say in every field of human endeavor - the first inquiry suggested must be after the object of our meeting. The answer is that our purpose corresponds to the eminence of the assemblage. We aim at nothing less than a survey of the realm of knowledge, as comprehensive as is permitted by the limitations of time and space. The organizers of our congress have honored me with the charge of presenting such preliminary view of its field as may make clear the spirit of our undertaking. Certain tendencies characteristic of the science of our day clearly suggest the direction of our thoughts most appropriate to the occasion. Among the strongest of these is one toward laying greater stress on questions of the beginning of things, and regarding a knowledge of the laws of development of any object of study as necessary to the understanding of its present form. It may be conceded that the principle here involved is as applicable in the broad field before us as in a special research into the properties of the minutest organism.
