| Zusammenfassung: | James Clerk Maxwell (1831-1879) had a relatively brief, but remarkable life, lived in his beloved rural home of Glenlair, and variously in Edinburgh, Aberdeen, London and Cambridge. His scholarship also ranged wide - covering all the major aspects of Victorian natural philosophy. He was one of the most important mathematical physicists of all time, coming only after Newton and Einstein. In scientific terms his immortality is enshrined in electromagnetism and Maxwell's equations, but as this book shows, there was much more to Maxwell than electromagnetism, both in terms of his science and his wi. |

His scholarship also ranged wide - covering all the major aspects of Victorian natural philosophy. He was one of the most important mathematical physicists of all time, coming only after Newton and Einstein. In scientific terms his immortality is enshrined in electromagnetism and Maxwell's equations, but as this book shows, there was much more to Maxwell than electromagnetism, both in terms of his science and his wi.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="1" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Maxwell, James Clerk,</subfield><subfield code="d">1831-1879.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79089636</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Maxwell, James Clerk,</subfield><subfield code="d">1831-1879</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJrGqf3TWthMmC6CYtRVG3</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Physicists</subfield><subfield code="z">Great Britain</subfield><subfield code="v">Biography.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="2"><subfield code="a">Science</subfield><subfield code="x">history</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="2"><subfield code="a">Electromagnetic Phenomena</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">SCIENCE</subfield><subfield code="x">Energy.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">SCIENCE</subfield><subfield code="x">Mechanics</subfield><subfield code="x">General.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">SCIENCE</subfield><subfield code="x">Physics</subfield><subfield code="x">General.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Physicists</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Great Britain</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJdmp7p3cx8hpmJ8HvmTpP</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="2"><subfield code="a">Biography</subfield><subfield code="0">https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D019215</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Biographies</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Biographies.</subfield><subfield code="2">lcgft</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026049</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Biographies.</subfield><subfield code="2">rvmgf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Flood, Raymond.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">McCartney, Mark.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Whitaker, Andrew.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">James Clerk Maxwell (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCFPkQttH3MjFcmVwWXVhDy</subfield><subfield code="4">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/ontology/hasWork</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="t">James Clerk Maxwell : perspectives on his life and work.</subfield><subfield code="d">Oxford, [England] : Oxford University Press, ©2014.</subfield><subfield code="b">First edition.</subfield><subfield code="h">x, 364 pages</subfield><subfield code="z">9780199664375</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="4" ind2="0"><subfield code="l">FWS01</subfield><subfield code="p">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield><subfield code="q">FWS_PDA_EBA</subfield><subfield code="u">https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=683934</subfield><subfield code="3">Volltext</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="936" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">BATCHLOAD</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Askews and Holts Library Services</subfield><subfield code="b">ASKH</subfield><subfield code="n">AH26129746</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Coutts Information Services</subfield><subfield code="b">COUT</subfield><subfield code="n">27282023</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">EBL -

James Clerk Maxwell (1831-1879) had a relatively brief, but remarkable life, lived in his beloved rural home of Glenlair, and variously in Edinburgh, Aberdeen, London and Cambridge. His scholarship also ranged wide - covering all the major aspects of Victorian natural philosophy. He was one of the most important mathematical physicists of all time, coming only after Newton and Einstein. In scientific terms his immortality is enshrined in electromagnetism and Maxwell's equations, but as this book shows, there was much more to Maxwell than electromagnetism, both in terms of his science and his wi.
