wiktionary
Coined by English polymath William Whewell in March 1834 in an anonymous review of Mary Somerville's book On the Connexion of the Physical Sciences in the Quarterly Review as a suggested replacement for, [1] and later seriously introduced by him in 1840 [2] as a more precise substitute for, the terms natural philosopher and man of science. Modeled after artist, from the Latin stem scientia(“knowledge”) with the suffix -ist.
