General Index to the Philosophical Magazine and Annals, New Series [1827-1832]. Dr. Fisher had collected and owned over 80,000 items. During his life, he was world-renowned as a serious book, manuscript, and artifact collector. Over the years many of the items that he collected were donated, sold, and given away. The Philosophical Magazine is one of the oldest scientific journals published in English. It was established by Alexander Tilloch in 1798; in 1822 Richard Taylor became joint editor and it has been published continuously by Taylor & Francis since. Early in the nineteenth century, classic papers by Humphry Davy, Michael Faraday and James Prescott Joule appeared in the journal. In 1814, the Philosophical Magazine merged with the Journal of Natural Philosophy, Chemistry, and the Arts, otherwise known as Nicholson's Journal (published by William Nicholson), to form The Philosophical Magazine and Journal. Further mergers in 1827 with the Annals of Philosophy, and in 1840 with The London and Edinburgh Philosophical Magazine and Journal of Science (named the Edinburgh Journal of Science until 1832) led to the retitling of the journal as The London, Edinburgh, and Dublin Philosophical Magazine and Journal of Science. In 1949, title reverted to The Philosophical Magazine. Among the contents of this volume is, from number XLI--November, "Mr Faraday's Reply to Dr. John Davy's "Remarks on certain statements of Mr. Faraday contained in his 'Researches in Electricity." In this same number there is a "Note by M. Ampere on Heat and Light considered as the Results of Vibratory Motion. In number XLII--December there is "Sir G. S. Mackenzie on the Theory of the Parallel Roads of Glen Roy" and "Mr. Lubbock on Bernoulli's Theory of the Tides." Other topics addressed include: Halley's Comet, Glen Roy, G. S. Mckenzie, Magnetism, Meteorology, Rotative Steam-Engine. Michael Faraday FRS (22 September 1791 - 25 August 1867) was an English scientist who contributed to the study of electromagnetism and electrochemistry. His main discoveries include the principles underlying electromagnetic induction, diamagnetism and electrolysis. Faraday was one of the most influential scientists in history. It was by his research on the magnetic field around a conductor carrying a direct current that Faraday established the basis for the concept of the electromagnetic field in physics. Faraday also established that magnetism could affect rays of light and that there was an underlying relationship between the two phenomena. He similarly discovered the principles of electromagnetic induction and diamagnetism, and the laws of electrolysis. His inventions of electromagnetic rotary devices formed the foundation of electric motor technology, and it was largely due to his efforts that electricity became practical for use in technology. As a chemist, Faraday discovered benzene, investigated the clathrate hydrate of chlorine, invented an early form of the Bunsen burner and the system of oxidation numbers, and popularized terminology such as "anode", "cathode", "electrode" and "ion". Faraday ultimately became the first and foremost Fullerian Professor of Chemistry at the Royal Institution, a lifetime position. Faraday was an excellent experimentalist who conveyed his ideas in clear and simple language. The SI unit of capacitance is named in his honor: the farad. Daniel Bernoulli FRS (8 February [O.S. 29 January] 1700 - 27 March 1782) was a Swiss mathematician and physicist and was one of the many prominent mathematicians in the Bernoulli family from Basel. He is particularly remembered for his applications of mathematics to mechanics, especially fluid mechanics, and for his pioneering work in probability and statistics. His name is commemorated in the Bernoulli's principle, a particular example of the conservation of energy, which describes the mathematics of the mechanism underlying the operation of two important technologies of the 20th century: the carburetor and the airplane wing.…
