Scientific paper

IT is hardly possible to exaggerate the importance of the question now under discussion in NATURE, ``What was Kant's view of Space ?'' A mistake there is simply fatal. I therefore rejoice to find the columns of that paper are so generously thrown open to those who, like myself, are not primarily concerned with physical science. But this question, like all others in philosophy, has a proclivity to indefinite expansion, and unless its discussion be rigidly restricted to the main issue involved in it, the conductors of NATURE will have to ostracise it. Their space is not an infinite form, but a quantum to be carefully economised. It is, for example, an unwarrantable waste of that commodity to make Hegel the exponent of Kant on a point where Hegel taught that Kant was wrong.
