    Notes: [Auszug] IT is curious that the mathematical paradoxer should confine himself principally to the problem of " squaring the circle"-that is, to the attempt to prove that v is the root of a quadratic equation with rational coefficients, in algebraical language; while other simpler questions are at hand in ...

    Notes: [Auszug] IT has been to me a matter of surprise that a letter by Prof. O. Lodge published in these columns on October 17, 1889, did not elicit other similar communications, as the views he enunciated are undoubtedly those of a not inconsiderable number of active members of the British Association. Prof. ...

    Notes: [Auszug] THE writers of these two books have very much the same object in view. Their aim is to show that the mental life of animals differs only in degree, not in kind, from that of man. If anyone still thinks that animals are merely machines, or that they have no higher faculties than instinct, it would ...
