The stock question
(Reporting in the last years of the first post-war Labour Government, this Royal Commission also suggested (para 353) that the importance of mere numbers 'as compared' with pre-eminence in science and technology had probably been declining. Twenty-one years later, in the last years of the third post-war Labour Government, a Select Committee on Science and Technology considered the increasing numbers of the people and called for immediate action t…

The Place of the History of Education in Training Courses for Teachers
The place of the History of Education in training courses for teachers
This subject is utterly despised by the University', lamented R. H. Quick after giving his first lecture on the History of Education to an audience of intending teachers at Cambridge in October 1879; 'people don't know anything about the history of Education and don't want to know.'1 Now, nearly three-quarters of a century later, things have changed. Books on the history of education exfoliate, and the subject has become not only an integral part…
A Hundred Years of Education
The Royal Society and the Apothecaries 1660-1722
The influence of the Royal Society upon the apoth ecaries is an interesting, but unexplored, topic. Miss Syfret, discussing the relationship between the new philosophy and physic, recently remarked that the Royal Society ‘could be regarded as likely to support the empirics and apothecaries against that ultra-conservative body, the Royal College of Physicians, and to interfere with the wonted courses of physic’. An even more recent analysis by Dr …
Sir Godfrey Copley, F.R.S., 1653-1709 Some Tercentenary Glimpses through Letters to his Friends
The name of Sir Godfrey Copley is closely associated with the Royal Society because in his will dated 14 October 1704, and proved in the Prerogative Court on 11 April 1709, he bequeathed one hundred pounds in trust to the Society Tor improving natural knowledge, to be laid out in experiments, or otherwise, for the benefit thereof, as they shall direct and appoint’. The interest was given to J. T. Desaguliers, Curator of the Society, for various e…

G. W. Featherstonhaugh, F. R. S., 1780-1866, Anglo-American scientist
In his article ‘Americans and the Royal Society 1783-1937’ R. Heathcote Heindel (I)* tabulates the American Fellows of the Royal Society, including those fellows elected as home members and those elected as foreign fellows of another country, but omits the Anglo-American G. W. Featherstonhaugh, who has claims to inclusion. This omission is understandable, for Featherstonhaugh has not been included in the standard biographical dictionaries of eith…

Charles Watson-Wentworth, second marquess of Rockingham, F. R. S. (1730-1782): Some aspects of his scientific interests
I cannot but wish that our nation abounded with more frequent examples of persons, of like rank and ability with your lordship, equally desirious of promoting . . . every other branch of natural science that lends to the honour and benefit of our country.’ So James Bradley, a member of the Council of the Royal Society addressed the Earl of Macclesfield, P. R. S. from 1752-1764. Bradley’s wish, so like Sprat’s of nearly ninety years before, was re…

Science and education: A note
R. E. W. AND FRANCIS R. MADDISON, in their article on ‘Joseph Priestley and the Birmingham riots’* rightly draw attention to the vindictiveness with which he, no less than his fellow sufferers, was pursued. They also point out that ‘when the riots broke out a certain Mr Hill, with some companions, all members of Priestley’s congregation, repaired to Dr Priestley’s house, which they offered to defend against the mob. To their sore disappointment t…
