TYNDALL, JOHN (1820-1893), British natural philosopher, was born in Co. Carlow, Ireland, on the 2nd of August 1820, his father being the son of a small landowner in poor circumstances, but a man of more than ordinary ability, With Darwin and Huxley his name is inseparably connected with the battle which began in the middle of the ipth century for making the new standpoint of modem science part of the accepted philosophy in general life. For many years, indeed, he came to represent to ordinary Englishmen the typical or ideal professor of physics. His strong, picturesque mode of seizing and expressing things gave him an immense living influence both in speech and writing, and disseminated a popular knowledge of physical science such as had not previously existed. But besides being a true educator, and perhaps the greatest popular teacher of natural philosophy in his generation, he was an earnest and original observer and explorer of nature. Tyndall was to a large extent a self-made man; he had no early advantages, but with indomitable earnestness devoted himself to study, to which he was stimulated by the writings of Carlyle. He passed from a national school in Co. Carlow to a minor post (1839) in the Irish ordnance survey, thence (1842) to the English survey, attending mechanics' institute lectures at Preston in Lancashire. He then became for a time (1844) a railway engineer, and in 1847 a teacher at Queenwood College, Hants. Thence with much spirit, and in face of many difficulties, he betook himself, with his colleague Edward Frankland, to the university of Marburg (1848-1851), where, by intense application, he obtained his doctorate in two years. His inaugural dissertation was an essay on screw-surfaces.

(1532), a treatise on the sacraments (1533), and possibly another (no longer extant) on matrimony (1529). The works of Tyndale were first published along with those of John Frith (q.v.) and Robert Barnes, " three worthy martyrs and principal teachers of the Church of England," by John Day, in 1573 (folio). A new edition of the worKS of Tyndale and Frith, by T. Russell, was published at London (1828-1831). His Doctrinal Treatises and Introductions to Different Portions of the Holy Scripture were published by the Parker Society in 1848. For biography, see Foxe's Acts and Monuments; R.

    The Form and Function of Scientific Discoveries
    Kenneth L. Caneva
    Dibner Library Lecture, Smithsonian Institution Libraries, November 16, 2000
    FOREWORD
    T he Dibner Library Lectures contribute immeasurably to the Smithsonian Libraries' efforts to acquaint the larger public with the valuable materials in the Dibner Library of the History of Science and Technology, and how they are used by scholars. The creative research done by these lecturers and all users of the Dibner Library speak clearly and unmistakably to the continuing usefulness of the volumes Bern Dibner collected and donated to the nation in his 1976 gift to the Smithsonian. This is the tenth lecture in the Dibner Library Lecture Series, supported by The Dibner Fund, and the second to be published. Kenneth L. Caneva delivered this lecture on "The Form and Function of Scientific Discoveries" in November 2000 and prepared it for the present publication with notes and bibliography. We first met Professor Caneva in 1995 when he was selected to be a Smithsonian Libraries Dibner Library Resident Scholar in the early years of that program. Caneva is one of twenty-five scholars who have benefited from this program also generously supported by The Dibner Fund since 1992. The cover image is a well known illustration of science represented as a ship, boldly sailing beyond the Pillars of Hercules, the emblematic limits of the old world. Appearing on the title page of Francis Bacon's Novum Organum (1620), the image epitomizes the spirit of scientific inquiry that forms the basis of Professor Caneva's observations about the experiments and discoveries of Hans Christian Ørsted, Johann Wilhelm Ritter, and Thomas Johann Seebeck, the subjects of his lecture. Bacon's eminence as a philosopher of science was recognized by Bern Dibner, the creator of the Dibner Library of the History of Science and Technology, who included Bacon in his galaxy of 200 pioneers in the history of science and technology, now celebrated as the "Heralds of Science."

Marbled endpapers and marbled edges. Text bright and crisp. Tyndall was seized by the mountains, and he became one of the most intrepid and resolute of explorers (among other feats of climbing, he was the first to ascend the Weissborn [1861]). He and his wife Louisa (daughter of Lord Claud Hamilton) maintained a cottage on Bel Alp above the Rhone valley.
    Tyndall's observations on glacier motion brought him into acute conflict with other scientists, though it was he who identified the essential principles and causes of glacier motion. John Tyndall was born in Ireland in poor circumstances. He was a remarkable self-made man of science. "With Darwin and Huxley his name is inseparably connected with the battle which began in the middle of the 19th century for making the new standpoint of modern science part of the accepted philosophy in general life.
    For many years indeed, he came to represent to ordinary Englishmen the typical or ideal professor of physics.

    This collection of (first?) American editions is an outgrowth of his enormously successful lecture tour of America (1872-3). That trip earned him many thousands of dollars, but he would touch none of it. He placed it instead in the hands of trustees, and directed that it be used for the advancement of American science.

    Alfred Russel Wallace Collection
    (0.25 linear feet) B W15a American Philosophical Society 105 South Fifth Street * Philadelphia, PA 19106-3386 Table of contents Abstract A prime exponent of evolutionary theory in the late nineteenth century, the British naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace arrived independently at the theory of natural selection nearly simultaneously with Charles Darwin. The numerous publications that emerged from his extended field excusions into the Amazon Basin and the Malay Archipelago (Indonesia) Wallace resulted in major contributions to evolutionary theory, biogeography, ecology, and ethnography, and made Wallace, by the end of his life, one of the best known naturalists in Britain. A Socialist, social progressive, and Spiritualist, Wallace's distinctive take on evolutionary change differed from the Darwinian mainstream in significant ways. The Wallace Collection is a miscellaneous assemblage of letters written by and to Alfred Russel Wallace, primarily during the last twenty five years of his life. Varied in content, the letters touch on Wallace's views on evolution, Spiritualism, and to a less degree, his progressive social commitments.
