Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Pugs and Peacocks Neat and precise in his habits, Melian Stokes had never been any trouble to anyone, not even to himself. In his twenties he had achieved that obscure but illustrious fame which is given to mathematicians and men of science, who, using a language understood by very few, find those few wherever there are universities. Such famous men are always better known in other countries than in their own, and distinguished foreigners in London drawing-rooms had often been astonished to find blank looks when they mentioned Stokes. "Yes. In Spain we say Stokes as we say Darwin." "Really! What has he done? Is he alive?" "But yes. Is he not at Cambridge?" "What has he done?" "Something with the spectrum." "Ah! The spectrum!" There were people, who did not know him, who referred to Melian as "Spectrum Stokes." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
