Book Description
Excerpt from Annals of the Philosophical Club of the Royal Society: Written From Its Minute Books The story of the Royal Society Club has been recently told by a member hardly less eminent for his literary gifts than as a geologist. But though much the senior, this was not the only social club in the Royal Society. A second was founded in 1847, and continued till 1901, when the two were united. Their aims, however, were not identical. The older club had grown up, perhaps without any formal beginning, as a social institution. The younger one, while not by any means repudiating this position, had more definite purposes. It arose from a sense of dissatisfaction, which was felt, rather before the middle of last century, at the condition and management of the Royal Society, by not a few of its more energetic and eminent Fellows. They were convinced that it was not occupying the position or exercising the influence in the country which it ought to be doing, and that this failure was partly due to the way in which its Fellows were elected; in other words, that there was a danger lest it should be said of the Society, as it was formerly of a very attractive College at Oxford, that the chief qualifications for its Fellowship were for the candidate to be 'well-born, well-dressed, and moderately learned [in science].' "The agitation for reform," to quote Sir A. Geikie's words, "became so urgent that, in 1846, the Council appointed a Committee to consider the mode of election of Fellows. The result of the deliberations of the Committee was seen next year in the adoption of a new series of statutes which wrought a revolution in the procedure of the Society in regard to this matter."
