Présentation de l'éditeur

For myself I found that I was fitted for nothing so well as for the study ofT ruth; as having a mind nimble and versatile enough to catch the resemblance of things (which is the chief point), and at the same time steady enough to fix and distinguish their subtler differences; as being gifted by nature with desire to seek, patience to doubt, fondness to meditate, slowness to assert, readiness to reconsider, carefulness to dispose and set in order; and as being a man that neither affects what is new nor admires what is old, and that hates every kind of imposture. So I thought my nature had a kind of familiarity and relationship with Truth. FRANCIS BACON. Before Science The Practical Mood The Emotional Mood The Scientific Mood contrasted with theO thers Adjustment of Moods Characteristics of theS cientific Mood A Passion for Facts Cautiousness of Statement Clearness of Vision Sense of the I nter-relatedness ofT hings Culture of theS cientific Mood Summary.
