NOT to my contemporaries, not to my compatriots but to
mankind I commit my now completed work in the confidence that it will not be without value for them, even
if this should be late recognised, as is commonly the lot

We subject the unlooked for and unimagined, to the mathematical formulae of the schools. — Edgar Allan Poe
