"The Scientific Basis of National Progress, Including that of Morality" by G. Gore is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The text focuses on the essential role that scientific knowledge plays in progressing and improving both material and moral aspects of society. Gore emphasizes that advancements are dictated by new discoveries and innovations, arguing that a lack of support for scientific research jeopardizes national welfare. The opening of the work introduces the author's premise regarding the critical importance of scientific knowledge in fostering national success and progress. Gore dedicates the treatise to the Birmingham Philosophical Society and expresses concerns about the public's ignorance regarding how scientific discovery is connected to human welfare. He outlines the book's structure, which includes discussions on material progress, mental and moral advancements, and the promotion of original scientific research, all while advocating for greater public and governmental support of science as a fundamental driver of national progression.
