Reseña del editor

There is a growing desire among science teachers to have a general introductory course in which the fundamental principles of science and of scientific study are presented in such a way that pupils will acquire the desire for a systematic study of the special branches of science. There are also many high schools in which only a year or so can be devoted to the subject of science. In these a general course giving an explanation of the pupils experiences with suggestions of how to acquire further information will be most valuable. In many city high schools a number of courses are offered in which no science subject is required. Many of the larger cities are now adding a half-year of general science to these courses in which special science subjects are not required, thus giving such pupils as in the commercial courses an understanding of every-day phenomena and some idea of the laws of health. This book is intended to meet these various needs. After having taught various phases of science, including General Science, for several years and having experimented on the order of arrangement of the subject-matter and the method of presentation, the author has concluded that the arrangement of the material as presented in this book is most effective in securing the following results: First. A desire to grow strong in body and mind and to remain free from disease and to avoid the use of stimulants and narcotics is created.
