| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "A Century of Science and Other Essays" by John Fiske is a collection of essays written in the late 19th century. This work reflects on significant scientific discoveries and ideas that shaped modern thought, particularly focusing on evolution and the progress of various scientific fields over the past century. Fiske aims to illustrate the rapid advancements and methodologies in science, advocating for the importance of systematic inquiry. The opening of the collection sets the stage by discussing the revolutionary discovery of oxygen by Dr. Priestley and traces the dramatic evolution of scientific understanding from the antiquated beliefs of alchemy to the foundational principles of modern chemistry. Fiske elaborates on how scientific advancements, particularly in fields such as chemistry and geology, signify a transformative leap in human knowledge. He emphasizes the interconnectedness of various scientific disciplines and foreshadows the larger discussions on evolution and the development of human society that will follow in the subsequent essays in the book.
