Summary "Popular Science Monthly" edited by J. McKeen Cattell is a collection of scientific essays and articles published during the early 20th century. This volume, which spans the months from May to October in 1900, covers a wide range of topics including astronomy, sociology, and entomology. Each piece provides insights into contemporary scientific thought and observations, reflecting the expanding understanding of various scientific fields at that time. The beginning of this volume introduces specific articles that touch upon pressing scientific phenomena and societal issues. For instance, Frank H. Bigelow's discussion of the total solar eclipse on May 28, 1900, highlights the visibility of the eclipse in the Southern United States and the opportunity for masses to observe it without the logistical challenges often faced. The essays that follow explore various aspects of the natural world, from the ecology of birds in the Adirondacks to the socio-economic status of African Americans post-Civil War, showcasing the diversity and depth of scientific inquiry characteristic of the publication. Each article reflects an interest in expanding knowledge and understanding, making it a valuable resource for those interested in the scientific developments of the era.
