Synopsis

This book presents the proceedings of the Nova Scotian Institute of Science for the sessions covering 1890 through 1893. Containing an array of scientific papers and discussions, the main areas of focus are geology and natural history. One can witness the unfolding of scientific understanding in the late 19th century through the work of authors like MacGregor and Murphy. The papers reflect the scientific concerns of the time, from practical issues such as the viability of building stones to more theoretical ones such as the nature of magnetism and the study of saline solutions. The observations and reflections found within will be of interest to scholars and general readers alike.
