Why does matter stick together? Why do gases condense to liquids, and liquids to solids? This book provides a detailed historical account of how some of the leading scientists of the past three centuries have tried to answer these questions. The topi

In the early 1850s Joule and Thomson measured the cooling experienced by a flowing gas on passing an obstacle that caused a decrease in pressure. The mythical ‘perfect gas’, which conforms exactly to Boyle's and Charles's laws, would show no such

Statistical mechanics has two foundations; first, the early attempts from the late 17th century onwards to explain the bulk properties of matter in terms of the forces between the constituent particles, and secondly, the attempts in the early 19th ce

The Maxwell–Boltzmann distribution of molecular velocities and densities was derived first in the 1870s, but the derivations were difficult to follow and led to predictions of the heat capacities of gases that did not agree with experiment. The sys

Le Sage's Essay was an ingenious eighteenth–century attempt to explain both the cohesive forces between particles of matter and gravitational forces, without recourse to Newtonian attraction at a distance. His explanation of cohesive forces never g

The polite world took little interest in the Alps before the 18th century. The local inhabitants had ventured far enough to shoot chamois and to search for crystal (i.e. quartz), but few of the educated took any notice. The earliest natural philosoph

In the 1840s Kincardine was a small port on the river Forth above Edinburgh where the local inn, the Unicorn, was kept by Thomas Dewar and his wife Ann. They had seven sons, of whom six survived infancy, and the last of whom, James, was born in 1842.

The structure and thermodynamic properties of the interface between a drop of liquid and its vapour have long been matters of controversy. The system can be described in terms of its macroscopic thermodynamic properties, in terms of local thermodynam
