13. Question 11
“In one respect this book is an experiment, and may chance to prove a failure: I mean
that I have not thought it necessary to maintain throughout the gravity of style which
scientific writers usually affect, and which has somehow come to be regarded as an
„inseparable accident‟ of scientific teaching. I never could quite see the reasonableness of
this immemorial law: subjects there are, no doubt, which are in their essence too serious
to admit of any lightness of treatment – but I cannot recognise Geometry as one of them.
Nevertheless it will, I trust, be found that I have permitted myself a glimpse of the comic
side of things only at fitting seasons, when the tired reader might well crave a moment‟s
breathing-space, and not on any occasion where it could endanger the continuity of the
line of argument.”
