Wiring the continents together in the nineteenth century was not delayed by a lack of electrical knowledge, but by a crisis in material science. Copper wire submerged in saltwater instantly short-circuits. The dream of a transatlantic telegraph remained physically impossible until the discovery of a...
In 1858, engineers and visionaries attempted something the world had never seen: laying an electric telegraph cable across the floor of the Atlantic Ocean. Wires Across the Deep gives beginners an accessible, technical introduction to the daring project that shortened communication time between cont...
This book presents a history of differential equations, both ordinary and partial, as well as the calculus of variations, from the origins of the subjects to around 1900. Topics treated include the wave equation in the hands of d’Alembert and Euler; Fourier’s solutions to the heat equation and t...
