Heads of Lectures on a Course of Experimental Philosophy: Particularly Including Chemistry

Situated, as I happily am, in the neighbourhood of the New College at Hackney, an institution that does honour to the Dissenters, an institution open to all persons without distinction[1], and connected as I am by friendship with the tutors, I was glad to give it every assistance in my power; and therefore undertook to read the Lectures on History and General Policy which I had composed when I was tutor at Warrington, and also to give another course on the subject of Experimental Philosophy. With this view I drew up the following Heads of Lectures; and, to save the students the trouble of transcribing them, they are[Pg iv] now printed. To other persons they may serve as a compendious view of the most important discoveries relating to the subject. As it was found most convenient, with respect to the other business of the college, to confine this course to one lecture in a week, I contrived to bring within that compass as much of the subject of experimental philosophy as I well could, and especially to include the whole of what is called chemistry, to which so much attention is now given, and which presents so many new fields of philosophical investigation. Besides that the plan of the young gentlemen's studies would not admit of it, I think it most advisable not to trouble beginners with more than a large outline of any branch of science. By this means they are not fatigued by too long an attention to any one subject, a greater variety of articles[Pg v] may be brought before them, and in future life they may pursue any of them as much farther as their inclination may dispose, and their ability and opportunity shall enable, them to do it. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
