Dewey Decimal System of Love by Josephine Carr, New American Library For questions about the science of the heart and how it beats, go to the 616.12's and for questions about the philosophy of the heart, go to the 700.4's [ms. pg 223] Ally Skinner doesn't fall into any category... NAL, September 2003 272 pages ISBN: 0451209710 Trade Size $12.95 A Story about the Dewey Decimal System of Classification Some years ago Mr. Melvil Dewey devised a system of classifying books which is used in many libraries. He chose certain main subjects and numbers, so that all nonfiction books on the same subject would be together on the shelf. He chose these subjects by imagining himself to be a prehistoric or primitive man. He asked himself questions he thought such a man would have asked. (This story is taken from a leaflet used in the Los Angeles County Public Library.)
