NEW AND VALUABLE BOOK FOR FAMILIES AND SCHOOLS.
SCIENCE RICHARDSON,SC
OF
Familiar Things.
A GUIDE TO THE SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE OF THINGS FAMILIAR. By the Rev. Dr. BREWER, Head Master of King's College School, Norwich. Carefully revised and adapted for use in Families and Schools in the United States. One thick volume. Price 62₺ cents.
This Volume contains about 2 000 Questions and Answers, explaining, in the most concise and intelligible manner, the phenomena of every-day occurrence. It contains an amount of useful information never before collected in a shape so convenient for study, andl so easy for reference.
EXTRACT FROM PREFACE .- " No science is generally more interesting than that which explains the common phenomena of life. We see that salt and snow are both white, a rose red, leaves green, and the violet a deep purple ; but how few persons ever ask the reason why ! We know that a flute pro- duces a musical sound, and a cracked bell a discordant one-that fire is hot, ice cold, and a candle luminous-that water boils when subjected to heat, and freezes from cold ; but when a child looks up into our face and asks us ' why,'-how many times is it silenced with a frown, or called ' very foolish for asking such silly questions !' The object of the present book is to explain about two thousand of these questions, (which are often more easily asked than answered,) in language so simple that a child may understand it, yet not so childish as to offend the scientific. In order to secure the strictest accu- racy in the answers, the most approved modern authors have been consulted, and each edition has been submitted to the revision of gentlemen of acknowledged reputation for scientific attainments. The almost unparalleled success of this little volume, of which 25,000 copies have been printed since the year 1848, is an incontrovertible proof of its acceptability ; and has induced the author to spare neither labor nor expense to render his ' Guide to the Scientific Knowledge of Things Familiar' instructive and amusing to the young, as well as to those of maturer life."
The following extracts, from a few of the notices of the "Guide to Science" in some of the leading journals of the day, will show the estimation with which it has been received :-
Dr. Brewer's Guide to Science .- Educational Times.
" It is quite impossible to dip into this charming little volume, open it at whatever part we may, without feeling a most encouraging assurance of the progress that is made in bringing scientific knowledge, or at least its aim and scope, within the cognizance of the general reader. Every page is calculated to rivet the attention cuen of the most thoughtless, and must contribute to swell the number of partisans of useful knowledge, and to add recruits to the powerful ermy which is now organizing for the warfare against ignorance and prejudiom.
PUBLISIIED BY C. S. FRANCIS & CO., NEW-YORK.
Dr. Brewer's Guide to Science .- English .Journal of Education.
" We most heartily thank Dr. Brewer for this valuable contribution to our educational literature, and assure our readers that the 'Guide to Science' is a good teachable book, and should be in the hands of every teacher."
Dr. Brewer's Guide to Science .- Hogg's Instructor.
" Some books, like certain men, are of such a class by general reputation, that, as Burke said of Dr. Johnson, you think it honor enough to ring the bell for them : the moment they appear on the stage, they recommend themselves, and you think it superfluous impertinence to point out their excellencies. Dr. Brewer's rich and delightful 'Guide to Science' is of such a nature, that could we only get our readers to shake hands with it, we should leave it to speak for itself. But being only a young work, although its sale has been already so large, it will scarcely be known in many quarters where its entrance would be hailed as one of the greatest boons which educational talent has conferred on the pub- lic. In recommending this admirable work to wider notice, we trust that its excellence will be felt both in the immediate benefits which it confers, and in the impulse it may communicate to workers in cognate paths of useful inquiry."
Dr. Brewer's Guide to Science .- Magazine of Science.
" As a book of reference, its worth is extreme; as a school-book, it is no less valuable ; and even as a volume taken up merely to pass a half-hour or so, it will be found attractive and of interest. We trust to hear of the still increasing cir- culation of a book so excellent and agreeable ; for we never saw a volume which could afford such a mass of trustworthy information so agreeably and cheaply."
Dr. Brewer's Guide to Science .- Elgin Courier.
" This is a volume calculated to be of inestimable value to the young. The style is easy and concise. We most cordially recommend the volume to our readers, assuring them that it contains a vast fund of useful and curious facts, which will be found of service to all ; but in families should be a book of daily reference."
Dr. Brewer's Guide to Science .- Evangelical Magazine.
" It would be difficult, if not quite impossible, to over-rate the value of this very popular volume. It is indeed a most charming family book; and the author has conveyed in twenty-nine chapters an amount of useful information never before conveyed in any volume of similar dimensions."
Dr. Brewer's Guide to Science .- Glasgow Examiner.
"This work might be called Chemistry Popularized, for it makes a vast num- ber of the most interesting facts of chemistry and natural philosophy so plain, that a mere child can understand them. * * * * We have never seen a book so philosophical and yet so practical, so plain and yet so profound."
Dr. Brewer's Guide to Science .- Edinburgh Advertiser.
"This is a very excellent work. All the most common objects of science are well explained, and many illustrated by diagrams. We are told in the preface, that this little work has already reached 25,000 copies,-we are not surprised at It ; but so rapid and extensive a sale is no doubtful proof of its utility, and favor with a discerning public."
Dr. Brewer's Guide to Science .- Christian Witness.
" This is a production which deserves the greatest praise and encouragement: unlike most books, the title comes very far short of the contents. We most cor- dially commend this very admirable digest to all our readers."
Dr. Brewer's Guide to Science .- Aberdeen Journal.
" This is a most useful hand-book, explaining in the simplest possible manner all the common phenomena of life. It contains a very great deal of information calculated to excite rather than satisfy curiosity, and to lead the reader to pene- trate more deeply into the arcana from which some of the more superficial truths are here extracted."
Dr. Brewer's Guide to Science .- Family Friend.
" A most capital book. Every parent should adopt it as a text-book. It is fa- mous for schools, and still better for the fireside. Dr. Brewer has found indeed books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and a tongue in every thing."
