Scientific paper

IN my recent address on Newton to the Royal Society, a version of which was published in NATURE of December 19, I stated that the story of the apple first appeared in the second edition of Voltaire's ``Elémens de la Philosophie de Neuton'', printed in 1741. The point which I had in mind was that the story is not given in the first edition of that book, which appeared in 1738.
