Title

Boyle. Basic Section Structure.

Subject

Science -- Early works to 1800.

Description

Here is a basic chronological layout of each section of "Some Considerations Touching the Usefullnesse of Experimental Naturall Philosophy."

1) The chapter (essay) of the book discussing a specific topic
2) "Citations" section -- what we would call footnotes; expanding on the citations seen in the margins of the essay
3) "Errata" -- small corrections, mostly to the structure of the section; placed directly after the main content of the essay because reprinting was costly, and errors were noted after the printing of the essay
4) "Index" -- a page-by-page chapter summary of the essay
