Excerpt from An Introduction to Natural Philosophy, Vol. 1 of 2: Designed as a Text Book, for the Use of the Students in Yale College; Mechanics and HydrostaticsWe cannot, however, agree with those instructors who have yielded to the spirit of the age, (which is still hunting after a royal road to knowledge,) so far as to forsake demonstration altogether, and substitute for the mathematical elements of Natural Philosophy, text books in which the principles of the science rest on no better basis than more popular illustration. Works of this kind may, indeed, furnish us with very useful materials for exhibiting the applications of these principles.
