If mathematics is the Queen of Sciences, as the great mathematician Karl Friedrich Gauss christened it in the nineteenth century, then physics is king.

In 1864, two hundred years afterNewton, the Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell formulated the compact and elegant differential equations that described with similarly astounding precision the propagation of light, X-rays, and radio waves. Maxwell’s equations showed that electricity and magnetism, formerly separate phenomena,were part of the same unified electromagnetic field. [download]
