Excerpt from Practical Electricity: A Laboratory and Lecture Course

For example, it is not by studying geometrical optics, much less physical Optics, that an infant gradually learns to appreciate the distance of objects; and later on it is not by studying a treatise on struts, nor by listening to a course of lectures on structures, that the child finds out that the table has legs, hard legs, round legs. Feeling, looking, trying, in fact a simple course of experimental investigation, gives a child its knowledge; and this, there fore, I venture to think, is the method we should adopt when commencing the study of electricity.
