Its Usefulness.
IN order to arrive at an estimate of the value
and the usefulness of the new Encyclopaedia
Britannica, ?me would have to calculate the silffl
oi ail the occasions upon which the possession ?f
information i- preferable to the lack oi i:. A
few instances, gathered from the ??pinions of
those who have used the book, must suffice to
EUggest some of the directions jn which It i*
found to lie invaluable.
1 - It 1- useful, for example, to a man in his
own special business or occupation. It ha- been
welcomed a- indispensable by students of ki?tor$
'?il account of the \a-t field covered bv it; //f.y
torieaf article-; 1?; men <?f siuticf because it
presents the co-ordinated results of re-carch in
all the ?rirnrfg. The "Law Journal" recommends
ii I?? hnititrs a- a safe guide in Irqal matters
while, on account of il- m, dirai articles. "The
liriii-h Medical Journal" recommends it to dry
has. \n expert in commerce, writing <?f the ?'??
tlu?triol article-, -ay- of the new edition: "It
ought t<? find a place on the shelves of every
manager ni big works in the English-Speaking
world.*' It i- evident, indeed, that many ha\e
been attracted to the Encyclopaedia Britannica,
in the first instance, a- a standard authority upon
the subjects which particularly concern them.
2?Bui il i- equally evident that the work it
valued precisely because it i- good authority upon ?
i n ru Other Sllbiect, and in it- pages the reader
can make voyages of discovery, informing himself ?
as to subjects of which he previously knew noth?
ing. Moreover, it answers the innumerable ques?
tions which occur in the course of reading or d?t"
mission. In matters of health, law, burines*,
household economy, the value of a trustworthy
answer is palpable; but in the far greater num?
ber of cases where the answer to a question ap?
pears to be no more than the satisfaction of a
curiosity, information i- not the lc-s worth ac?
quiring because there is no immediate measure
of it- practical value.
.v?Another striking advantage afforded by the
new Encyclopaedia Britannica is the possession
ol a complete library of the bc^t authors in the
compass of a small shelf, it is a History of
all Nations, an International Dictionary of Biog?
raphy, a Gazetteer upon an unprecedented scale.
It i- a very full and complete library of Natural
History, and <>f all other Sciences: of Religion,
Philosophy. Law; of the Arts and Music; of
Engineering and Industries.
4?It po--e-se> the value, moreover, which <>ne
connect- with the idea of a librar}, for it- ar?
ticles arc written to be read, read systematically
as books are read for Study, or read in desultory
fashion, as chance or fancy direct, merely for the
interest which they afford.
5 The ex-President of Harvard University,
in writing to congratulate the Cambridge Univer?
sity Press upon it- enterprise, say-: "Myopinion
i- shared bv my two tiramlchildn n. who are n?>vv
a; the most inquisitive age."' The remark brings
home a point ni no inconsiderable importance in
estimating the usefulness of the Encyclopaedia
Britannica. It is a book for all classes of readers,
and for young people and children no lesa than
f..i their ehlers. To groM up with SUCh a rc
.-. .urce at hand is a liberal education an educa?
tion in which the pupil plays his part with no
sense of reluctance, and from which he derives
profit from the first moment when he turn- over
the pagCJ mete!}- for the sake of the pictures.
