	Clan MACFARLANE
		A branch of the family settled in Ireland in the reign of James VII, and the headship of the clan is claimed by its representative, Macfarlane of Hunstown House, in the county of Dublin.
		Alexander MacFarlan, the brother of the antiquary, was a successful merchant in Jamaica, becoming one of the assistant judges of the island, and a member of the Legislative Assembly.
		MacFarlan, it is said, had on the waters of Loch Lomond a famous flock of swans with which the luck of the family was associated.

	Alexander MacFarlane
		Such was the pattern in MacFarlane's career: He was a student-teacher from a young age in Scotland; he taught at the University of Texas and at Lehigh University, and later lead an international society of linear algebraists and participated in early International Congresses of Mathematicians, and in particular the primordial meeting in Chicago, 1893.
		Alexander first widened the scope of linear algebra with his lecture "Principles of the Algebra of Physics".He was speaking, in August 1891, as secretary of the physics section of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
		MacFarlane's contribution was through reaction to his proposal to take the square of unit vectors to be +1 and carry on in four dimensions.

	Alexander Macfarlane
		ALEXANDER MACFARLANE, one of the most distinguished citizens of Ontario, a leader in scientific thought and author of the highest merit, and a savant in whom both his native land and his adopted country take pride, was born at Blairgowrie, Scotland, April 21, 1851.
		Macfarlane first entered the Junior classes in Latin and Greek, and at the end of the session stood fourth in the former and fifth in the latter, in classes of 200, largely composed of high school graduates.
		Macfarlane has continued to write many papers on the algebra of space and has carried on the work of secretary of an International Society organized for promoting that branch of mathematics, and which includes in its membership many of the most active mathematicians of the several countries of the world.

	Hyperbolic quaternion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In mathematics, a hyperbolic quaternion is a mathematical concept first suggested by Alexander MacFarlane in 1891 in a speech to the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
		Yet physical scientists were calling in the 1890s for mutation of the squares of i,j, and k to be + 1 instead of − 1 : American physicists Willard Gibbs and Alexander MacFarlane made their cases in pamphlets, and Oliver Heaviside in England wrote columns in the Electrician, a trade paper.
		MacFarlane (1891) "Principles of the Algebra of Physics" Proceedings of the American Association for the Advancement of Science 40:65-117.

	The Ring of Hyperbolic Quaternions
		It was 1891 when Alexander MacFarlane first put forward the idea of a mutated quaternion ring built on motor planes.The provocative idea generated a vigorous discussion in the following decade, a discussion noted for the fault of a vocabulary of linear algebra, vector analysis, differential geometry and relativity that we have now.
		In this way the i, j, k lose their special place within H ; any triple in V of mutually perpendicular elements, correctly oriented, is equivalent to { i, j, k }.
		Now in hyperbolic quaternions M developed by MacFarlane in the 1890s, we trade in versors i, j, k for motors i, j, k and in fact take V ⊂ M to have a sphere S of motors.

		MacFarlane will be giving workshops to architects and engineers based on his research.

	WWW Style Sheet
		MacFarlane's account, while at times quite Whiggish and somewhat teleological, attempts, generally successfully, to demythologize Fleming.
		When he asks whether Fleming was a "genius" and a "great man," MacFarlane answers with a qualified "maybe." MacFarlane, a clinical pathologist from Oxford, seems unaware of the debate among the social constructivists and the positivists.
