Description

About the Book:-This Book reproduces the full text of the three Montgomery Lecture which it was my privilege to deliver at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln on April 19, 21, 23, 1954. What has ancient science to do with modern is focused upon science and technology and modern civilization is but the continuation of ancient science it would not exist without the latter. For example, Euclid Flourished in Alexandria more than twenty-two centuries ago yet he is still much alive and his name is equated with that of geometry itself. What has happened to him happens to every man whose name was equated with that of a thing the thing it known but the man himself is forgotten.
