Abstract
Defining the conditions of the scientific training is a vast and fundamental subject. While a thorough and complete analysis of that subject is impossible, a very brief analysis may be very useful. In this paper, I shall limit myself to defining what is the scientific mind and to stating a few fundamental principles which should be applied for the scientific training.
English translation of my paper La Formation Scientifique (the French text is available on request)
