Paraphrase for JB:
The very talented but shy scientist from last day was asked by his friends to publish his findings and hold seminars. It was extremely boring, although it had landmines of information contained in them. Very few people ever got through it. Probably none. However, one of his assistants published a more easily comprehensible form of it, which sold much much better.
Another person also came along and published another uncomprehensible text, but that one sold pretty well.
Also, a society of geologists (I believe) began to eclipse the power of the Royal Society.
