the principles of right and wrong have no 

 concern. 



And therefore when I speak of a scientific 

 education I mean an education that of neces- 

 sity is confined to an acquisition only of those 

 branches of knowledge comprised in the im- 

 mutable laws that are implicit in matter or- 

 ganic or inorganic, and in the human concep- 

 tions of number, space, dimension, motion 

 and force. 



Such is the Science of which I speak in 

 this book. It has no connexion with wisdom.
