Science

Almost all OF the astonishing new
things in science Of the past few years
may be found to have been understood
or partly understood centuries ago by
a few enlightened minds
About so A d. a Roman. Titus Lu-
cretius Carus, wrote a poem called
de Rerum Naturae, meaning ION
the nature Of things" Even at that
time the atomic theory was not new.
but he elaborated it in a manner that
prophesied the developments OF the
theory His prophesies were well rea-
soned and his conclusions arrived at
by pure logic. He was proved correct
by modern knowledge of the atomic
theory.
This Roman philosopher also taught
many truths about the ultimate units
of matter and told of their limited
variety. We now know there are
ninety-two Of these elements, starting
with hydrogen and ending with ura-
MUM. He also referred to what IS
now called the "Einstein swerve," to
the conservation Of matter and gave
an explanation of magnetism.
This poem stands to this day as
the supreme human effort Of pure
logic. It's latest translation is by Prof.
Cyril Ba1ly of Oxford University.
