Abstract
“THE mind is not content to leave scientific truth in a dry husk of mathematical symbols, and demands that it shall be alloyed with familiar images. The mathematician, who handles x so lightly, may fairly be asked to state,. not indeed the inscrutable meaning of x in Nature,. but the meaning which x conveys to him.”
