From "Town Geology" by Kingsley, Charles
The Young Reader
Represents those who may question the relevance of science to social reform.
Core Belief
"Belief in the importance of social and political action, but perhaps a lack of understanding of the role of science in achieving these goals."
Worldview
Focused on immediate social and political issues, but open to persuasion about the broader impact of scientific knowledge.
Personality
Idealistic, focused on social and political change, but perhaps dismissive of science as a tool for progress.
In Their Own Words
"Well, I hope they will not be angry with me for saying it. I, at least, shall certainly not he be angry with them. For when I was young I was very much of what I suspect is their opinion."
