Excerpt from Introduction to the Science of Dynamics
All our knowledge of the material world is derived from experience which can be conveniently divided into observation and experiment. Astronomy is an example of a science in Which all our knowledge is primarily derived from simple observation, whereas in the science of electricity all important advances have been made by the performance of experiments. Hence, Whilst the history of astronomy stretches over more than two thousand years, that of electricity hardly extends over two hundred.
Observation consists in simply observing With the aid only of our senses What is taking place in the material world.
