Excerpt from The Dublin Review, Vol. 21 Art. I. - 1. Repertorium BihUographicum, in quo libri omnes ah arte typographica inventa usque ad annum MD. typis expressi ordine alphahetico vel simpliciter enumerantur vel adcuratius recensentur. Opera Ludovici Hain. Stuttgartiæ Et Tubingæ, 1826. Stuttgartiæ Et Lutetiæ Parisiorum, 1831.Two volumes Octavo. 2. - Catalogue of the Scientific hooks in the Library of the Royal Society. London: 1839. Octavo. (By A. Panizzi, Esq.) The man, be he who he may, who first defined man to be a tool-making animal, described him, perhaps, as well and as distinctively as any but a physiologist could have done: but he should have gone farther. He should have added that the subdivisions which arise under this definition, specify the separate classes of which men are composed, as well as, if not better than, the definition itself separates men from other animals. All men use tools, some well and some ill: but of two men who are equally handy, one will merely know how to work, and the other will add an acquaintance with the history of his mode of operating. The effects of this difference vary with the nature of the employment; they exist to a certain extent in every case, but in some much more than in others. In literature and science, books are the tools; and it is impossible to under-estimate the use of a critical acquaintance with them, except to those who under-estimate knowledge itself.
