Jones of Nayland was one of the most eminent links between the Churchmanship of the Non-Jurors and that of the 

 Catholic Revival, and the above work has particular interest as showing his interest in science, which he maintained all 

 his life. The first chapter, with an incidental aphorism from St. Thomas Aquinas, is a spirited defence of the right of 

 the ordinary man to think as freely in matters of science as that exercised by the man of science to do so in matters of 

 religion.
