Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from The Seven Follies of Science: To Which Is Added a Small Budget of Interesting Paradoxes, Illusions, Marvels, and Popular Fallacies, a Popualar Account of the Most Famous Scientific Impossibilities, and the Attempts Which Have Been Made to Solve Them IN the following pages I have endeavored to give a sim ple account of problems which have occupied the attention of the human mind ever since the dawn of civilization, and which can never lose their interest until time shall be no more. While to most persons these subjects will have but an historical interest, yet even from this point of view they are of more value than the history of empires, for they are the intellectual battlefields upon which much of our prog ress in science has been won. To a few, however, some of them may be of actual practical importance, for although the schoolmaster has been abroad for these many years, it is an unfortunate fact that the circle-squarer and the per petual-motion-seeker have not ceased out of the land.
