Physicist John Tyndall and his contemporaries were at the forefront
of developing the cosmology of scientific naturalism during the
Victorian period. They rejected all but physical laws as having any
impact on the operations of human life and the universe.
Contributors focus on the way Tyndall and his correspondents
developed their ideas through letters, periodicals and scientific
journals and challenge previously held assumptions about who gained
authority, and how they attained and defended their position within
the scientific community.
