Excerpt from Ars Medici: An Essay on the Doctor's Art and Its Relation to ScienceNeedless to say, all this is folly unutterable. Science is science, and art is art. The two, though closely related, are absolutely distinct - as distinct as the clay is from the potter who uses and fashions it. Science is knowledge the knowledge of facts duly ordered in their right relations. Art is action - the skilled performance of right acts. Knowledge may be imparted: practical skill can only be acquired by rigid self-discipline and patient exercise of natural powers. No perfection in knowledge will ever do away with the need of artistic skill in applying it: action will never be knowledge nor knowledge action to the world's end.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
