William Thomson, first Baron Kelvin (1824-1907), is best known for
devising the Kelvin scale of absolute temperature and for his work
on the first and second laws of thermodynamics, though throughout
his 53-year career as a mathematical physicist and engineer at the
University of Glasgow he investigated a wide range of scientific
questions in areas ranging from geology to transatlantic telegraph
cables. The extent of his work is revealed in the six volumes of
his Mathematical and Physical Papers, published from 1882 until
1911, consisting of articles that appeared in scientific
periodicals from 1841 onwards. Volume 4, published in 1910,
includes articles from the period 1867-1906. Themes covered in this
book examine issues relating to water, such as hydrodynamics, tidal
theory and deep sea ship waves.
