Abstract
AT the instance of Sir W. Thomson, Mr. Lockyer, and others I proceed to give an account of Clerk-Maxwell's work, necessarily brief, but I hope sufficient to let even the non-mathematical reader see how very great were his contributions to modern science. I have the less hesitation in undertaking this work that I have been intimately acquainted with him since we were schoolboys together.
