Riassunto

Excerpt from The Penny Cyclopędia of the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge, Vol. 1: An-Andes

The plan of this work differs in a considerable degree from most other Cyclopasdias. These have generally given elaborate treatises on each branch of knowledge, often referring for the explanation of each term, as it occurs in the alphabetical order, to the general treatise. The plan of the Penny Cyclopedia, as it is specially intended as a book of reference, is not to attempt to form systems of knowledge, but to give pretty fully, under each separate head, as much infor mation as can be conveyed within reasonable limits. But whilst it endeavours to present in detail the explanation of those terms of Art and Science, the right understanding of which is independent of any system, it also attempts to give such general views of all great branches ot knowledge, as may help to the formation of Just. Ideas on their extent and relative importance. And to point out the best sources of complete information.
