About the Cover

CELEBRITY OF THE MONTH
James Clerk Maxwell
186th Birthday (13 June 1831 – 5 November 1879)
Theory of electromagnetic radiation

James Clerk Maxwell was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, on June 13, 1831. He was the only child of John Clerk, an Edinburgh lawyer. He was a Scottish physicist best known for his formulation of electromagnetic theory. He is regarded by most modern physicists as the scientist of the 19th century who had the greatest influence on 20th-century physics, and he is ranked with Sir Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein for the fundamental nature of his contributions. He was one of the greatest scientists who have ever lived. He is rightly acclaimed as the father of modern physics. He also made fundamental contributions to mathematics, astronomy and engineering. His research on electromagnetism established him among the great scientists of history. In the preface to his Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism (1873), the best exposition of his theory, he stated that his major task was to convert Faraday’s physical ideas into mathematical form. He showed that magnetism, electricity, and light were simply different manifestations of the same fundamental laws.
