Description

Science Restated Physics and Chemistry for The Non Scientist By Harold G.Cassidy. This text is the outcome of events set in motion over fifteen years ago. Then, in 1956 a committee of chairmen from Yale science departments met under the chairmanship of Professor Herbert Harned of the Chemistry Department. This committee gave official recognition to the fact that the educational needs in science of students who are :wt going to be professional scientists are different in significant ways from the needs of students in the regular pre-professional courses. They !aid down in broad outline the features that seemed desirable in a ooune suitable for persons not going on in physical science. Essentially, :.. was int􀁧nded that the values of science as a mode of thought, as a s:::.bstanttve underpinning to personal philosophy, as a method for :xintrolling the phenomenal world through intellectual concepts, should :e brought home insofar as possible to these students. This text is the outcome of events set in motion over fifteen years ago.
