Excerpt from A Popular Inquiry Into the Moon's Rotation on Her Axis It is with much diffidence that the Author submits the present Essay to the Public. To solve a scientific problem in a popular manner, to render an intricate astronomical question - misunderstood by the majority of Astronomers themselves - generally intelligible, to oppose the universal current of scientific opinion, and to prove the most eminent Philosophers and the greatest Mathematicians of this and the past century to have been in error respecting a subject, to which their attention and the exercise of their highest powers have so long been directed, - is an attempt not lightly to be undertaken, and suggestive of serious reflections.
