This focused and incisive study reassesses the historic collaboration between James Clerk Maxwell and Thomas Sutton. It reveals that Maxwell and Sutton were closer to true partners than has commonly been assumed, and shows how their experiments illuminate the role of technology, representation, and participation in Maxwell's natural philosophy.

He is the co-author of Otto Neurath: Philosophy Between Science and Politics (1996), and the author of the forthcoming monographs Master and Designer of Fields: James Clerk Maxwell and Constructive, Connective, Conventionalist, and Concrete Natural Philosophy and Physics Beyond Laws and Theories: The Limits of Unity, Universality, and Precision.
