Essay
On the means of facilitating giving facility to instruction in the several
branches of mathematical more properly characteristically termed posological
art Logic as the and science

1.
Logic — its application
to posology.

Logic is the eminence, the vantage-ground the commanding
situation from which all other parts of the field
of art and science, of the field of thought and action,
in which is contained the field of art and science, are may be
looked down upon and surveyed. It is from this situation
as from this survey situation as from there that all must be are poured down
all those fishloving streams of information by from which discovery
invention and improvement in all the several quarters
of that field secure their encrease.

2
From logic instruction
in posology must derive
the improvement it is
susceptible of — posology
itself may be advancing
by it: but more good
may be done by facilitating diffusion
than advancement

It must accordingly be from logic if from any
thing that in the posological part of the field the art of
instruction will derive any considerable what advancement what further improvement
it may remain susceptible of. From the same master
art it may even the progress of art and science in
the shape here in question might doubtless receive considerable
advancement. But posology is of the number of those
branches of art and science in which in the field respect of which more good substantial
good may be done by facility given to instruction
than by advancement given to progress: by in diminishing substracting from
the time and labour employed, and in obtaining the making of a certain
degree of progress, and thereby augmenting adding to the number of those
by whom that progress has been made, than by any addition augmentation
of which the stock of ideas belonging to that branch of
art and science science remains susceptible.
