Crossing the Boundaries Between Matter and Energy: Integration Between Discrete and Continuous Theoretical Models in Late Nineteenth Century British Electromagnetism

Description

one of Bordoni's dissertations, "on late-nineteenth-century British electromagnetism. Chapter 10 [PDF pp. 153-174] is devoted to Heaviside."

When Historiography Met Epistemology p. 263 (PDF p. 275) n25 cites pp. 163-5 (PDF pp. 165-7) of Crossing the Boundaries :

In 1893 Oliver Heaviside showed that Maxwell’s electromagnetic equations, which he had synthesised in the vector language, could not fit in with any mechanical model of aether.
