Science in the Making, Volume 2: 1850-1900 is essentially a collection of
seminal papers from The Philosophical Magazine by the likes of Kelvin, Thomson
and Maxwell. In their halcyon day, most scientific language was mercifully
jargon-free, and with useful background notes to each paper, the book will
appeal to anyone with an interest in the roots of modern physics. Published by
Taylor and Francis, £59.95, ISBN 0749406425.
