T was faid of one of the ancients-I think I it was it was Socrates, or his disciple Platothat he brought Philofophy down from heaven, to dwell among men upon earth. THE fame may, in fome measure, be affirmed of all thofe who fuccessfully endeavour to render the ARTS and SCIENCES, which were formerly wrapt up in the learned languages, and in technical terms, intelligible to the bulk of mankind, or to those who have not had the advantage of a liberal education. SUCH was, no doubt, the design of Dr. Turner in the prefent publication; and if he did not render it more copious and comprehensive, it was neither for want of inclination nor ability, but merely from a defire of confining the size of the book, as well as its price, within as narrow limits as poffible. HE intended however, had he lived, to have made many additions to the present impreffion. These he proposed chiefly to introduce in the article of Phyfics or Natural Philofophy, convinced, that what he had already faid on Metaphyfics and Moral Philosophy was as much as was neceffary or proper for thofe, for whose use the book was exprefsly compofed. As the Editor had an opportunity of being perfectly acquainted with the Doctor's fentiments in these particulars, he has endeavoured to execute his intentions in the beft manner he could. THE |
