  18. Ross, “‘Scientist,’” 73. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the term
    “physicist” was occasionally used in the eighteenth century to refer to an individual
    knowledgeable about medical science. In 1840, Whewell suggested in the preface to his
    Philosophy of the Inductive Sciences that a distinction be made between “physician,” to
    be used as the equivalent of the French physicien, and “physicist,” who “proceeds upon
    the ideas of force, matter, and the properties of matter.” See William Whewell, The
    Philosophy of the Inductive Sciences (London: John W. Parker, 1840), 1:lxxi.
