-Special : JAMES CLERK MAXWELL
150 years ago this month a young James Clerk Maxwell wrote down the
equations that, by bringing together the physics of electricity and
magnetism, laid the foundations for modern physics. Four pieces in this
week's Nature explore how Maxwell's insight emerged from grappling with
the problems of telegraphy and discuss its legacies, from
telecommunications and microelectronics to metamaterials and
unification.
