Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 2015 Reprint of 1920 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition. Not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Maxwell's most notable achievement was to formulate the classical theory of electromagnetic radiation, bringing together for the first time electricity, magnetism, and light as manifestations of the same phenomenon. Maxwell's equations for electromagnetism have been called the second great unification in physics after the first one realized by Isaac Newton. His discoveries helped usher in the era of modern physics, laying the foundation for such fields as special relativity and quantum mechanics. Many physicists regard Maxwell as the 19th-century scientist having the greatest influence on 20th-century physics. His contributions to the science are considered by many to be of the same magnitude as those of Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein. In the millennium poll-a survey of the 100 most prominent physicists-Maxwell was voted the third greatest physicist of all time, behind only Newton and Einstein. After 115 years, Matter and Motion still deserves a place in any well-rounded modern scientific library. As drawn up by one of the masters of science, the book is a carefully thought-out survey of Newtonian dynamics. Its generalizations proceed gradually from simple particles of matter to physical systems beyond complete analysis. This edition contains annotations by Joseph Larmor.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Great physicist's elegant, concise survey of Newtonian dynamics, from simple particles to systems beyond complete analysis. Considered one of the finest elementary scientific treatises ever written. Considered by many educators one of the finest elementary scientific treatises ever written, this work contains all of the characteristic freshness and elegance of Maxwell's writings and gives illuminating glimpses of a great mind's approach to fundamental subjects. After 115 years, Matter and Motion still retains its power of suggestion; it deserves a place in any well-rounded modern scientific library.As drawn up by one of the masters of science, the book is a carefully thought-out survey of Newtonian dynamics. Its generalizations proceed gradually from simple particles of matter to physical systems beyond complete analysis.In this edition, the treatment of the fundamental principles of dynamics has been enlarged along the author's own lines by the inclusion of the chapter ""On the Equations of Motion of a Connected System,"" from Volume II of Electricity and Magnetism. Two apprendices have been added by the editor, one dealing with the principles of the relativity of motion and the other with the wider aspects of the principle of least action. Great physicist's elegant, concise survey of Newtonian dynamics, from simple particles to systems beyond complete analysis. Considered one of the finest elementary scientific treatises ever written.
