Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Magazine of Popular Science, and Journal of the Useful Arts, 1836, Vol. 1 In some subjects, it is true (especially those which from their nature hardly admit of much diversity of representation), such as Astronomy, Mechanics, &c., the authority of great names has maintained its ascen dency; but in others, the case is very difi'erent. If we take only as an example the single science of Goclog, it is perfectly surprising what a mass of almost incredible absurdity and is swallowed by a large portion of the public, while the sober researches of really scientific are disregarded, or condemned as visionary and even dangerous.
