Summary

"Lord Kelvin: An account of his scientific life and work" by Andrew Gray is a historical look at the life and work of Lord Kelvin, zooming in on his important scientific contributions to physics and engineering. Far from a complete life story, the book looks at the story of his scientific accomplishments. It starts by talking Kelvin's family, like the impact of his father, and his time studying at the University of Glasgow. The scene is set for looking closely at how Kelvin grew up and how his early school experiences shaped his future groundbreaking work in thermodynamics and electricity, encouraging readers to think about how Kelvin's personal life and what he did for science were intertwined.
