An Arbitrary Veto

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  03 November 2016

Extract

Having read with more than ordinary interest the Address delivered by Professor Perry on “The Correlation of the Teaching of Mathematics and Science,” I should like to lay before the members of the Mathematical Association a few remarks which, I trust, will be found to the point.

I need not further endorse the view that as long as a student does not specialize in mathematics or in science, the teaching of both these subjects will be greatly improved if in the hands of the same teacher Such an arrangement must benefit both teacher and student. By “science” I mean physics, and those parts of applied mechanics, electricity, and magnetism, generally comprised with certain other practical subjects under the general term of “engineering.”
