Clerk Maxwell's Papers

Abstract

I DO not know whether the Clerk Maxwell Memorial Committee have ceased from their labours, but I cannot help thinking that more might be done towards rendering the work of Maxwell more readily accessible to students. The pair of ponderous volumes issued by the Committee are very well in their way, but they are certainly bulky, and the chronological order of papers, though eminently suited to their purpose, is not so suited to the practical needs of students.
