Description
1854 Astronomy Meteorology Illustrated SCIENCE Lardner Natural Philosophy
Dionysius Lardner (1793 – 1859) was an Irish scientific writer, engineer, mathematician, scientist, proto-marginalist who popularized science and technology with his Cabinet Cyclopedia.
This 1854 edition of ‘Handbooks of Natural Philosophy’ is the third volume of a set of Lardner’s books to help common people understand and be excited about sciences.
“These hand-books are prepared with a direct view to the wants of those who wish to obtain a knowledge of physical science, without minute mathematical details. While this does not impair the work for the scholar, it brings it within the reach of the less favoured, but more aspiring classes of the community; a more benevolent exercise of elevated talent cannot be imagined” (South Method Quart Review).
