American
The Amateur Scientist
Dr. Shawn Carlson writes a monthly article "The Amateur Scientist" in Scientific American magazine,
the article's monthly readership is currently over one million. In October 1999, Shawn's article was on an
educational software project that I was the chief
scientist for.
A copy of the article in its entirety is available online at

Document
[ad.L. document-um lesson, proof, instance, specimen]
4. Something written, inscribed, etc., which furnishes evidence or information upon
any subject, as a manuscript, title-deed, tomb-stone, coin, picture, etc.
Thesis [Gr. putting, placing; a proposition affirmation, etc.]
1. Originally and properly, according to ancient writers, The setting down of the
foot or lowering of the hand in beating time, and hence (as marked by this) the stress or ictus;
the stressed syllable of a foot in a verse; a stressed note in music.
4. A proposition laid down or stated, esp. as a theme to be discussed and proved, or to be
maintained against attack (in Logic sometimes as distinct from Hypothesis 2, in Rhetoric
from antithesis 2); a statement, assertion, tenet.
5. A dissertation to maintain and prove a thesis (in sense 4); esp. one written or delivered by a
candidate for a University Degree.
Article [L. articul-us (which lives on in F. as orteil), dim of artus joint]
III. The separate members or portions of anything written [Articulus in L. was extended from
the joint, to the parts joined on, limbs, members, 'joints' of a finger, etc.; whence transf. to the
component parts of discourses, writings, actions.]
8. gen A paragraph, section, or distinct item of any document.
9. A literary composition forming materially part of a journal, magazine, encyclopedia, or other
collection, but treating a specific topic distinctly and independently. (Here the idea of a section or part of a
book, is quite subordinated to that of the independent character of the 'article'. It is one of the articles in the
paper, as distinguished from the articles of this Dictionary.)
