A few days before his death my husband requested me to write a few
words of thanks on the publication of this collection of articles.
He had already prepared the greater part of the volume for the
press and had also decided on the title Science a Road to Wisdom.
His original selection was somewhat more comprehensive, which is
still partly reflected in the Preface. Knowing how much he wished
to see this collection published, I respectfully and lovingly
fulfil his request, thanking Else M. Barth and J. J. A. Mooij for
their extensive and expert care in putting the final touches to the
volume. ADDITION TO THE TRANSLATION Finally, I wish to thank Peter
G. E. Wesly for his willingness to undertake the translation of the
book into English. c. P. C. BETH-PASTOOR IX PREFACE In this
republication of a number of philosophical studies I have refrained
from including articles of a specialized nature on symbolic logic
and the methodology of the exact sciences. There was no cause to
include my contributions towards the didactics of mathematics and
physics, nor did I consider it appropriate to reprint pieces of a
predominantly polemical nature. I decided, however, that a very
modest selection from my purely historical work would not be out of
place.
