	EO Library: John Tyndall
		John Tyndall was a man of science—draftsman, surveyor, physics professor, mathematician, geologist, atmospheric scientist, public lecturer, and mountaineer.
		Tyndall's original research on the radiative properties of gases as well as his work with other top scientists of his era opened up new fields of science and laid the groundwork for future scientific enterprises.
		Tyndall related his radiation studies to minimum nighttime temperatures and the formation of dew, correctly noting that dew and frost are caused by a loss of heat through radiative processes.

	John Tyndall - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		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.
		Tyndall's first original work in physical science was in his experiments with regard to magnetism and diamagnetic polarity, on which he was chiefly occupied from 1850 to 1855.
		In May 1854 Tyndall was chosen professor of natural philosophy at the Royal Institution, a post which exactly suited his striking gifts and made him a colleague of Faraday, whom in 1866 he succeeded as scientific adviser to the Trinity House and Board of Trade, and in 1867 as superintendent of the Royal Institution.

		John Tyndall was born at Leighlinbridge, County Carlow on 2 August 1820 and, after suffering ill-health for many years, died tragically in Hindhead, Surrey on 4 December 1893, from an overdose of a sleeping draught mistakenly administered by his wife.
		Tyndall was persuaded by Carlyle’s denigration of mass movements and praise of self-culture.
		Tyndall justified his accounts of atomic and molecular structure by appealing to a disciplined ‘scientific imagination’ which extends reasoning past the boundary of visible and sensible evidence.

	John Tyndall
		John Tyndall (1820-1893) was one of the greatest scientists of the 19th century.
		Tyndall concluded that water vapour is the strongest absorber of heat in the atmosphere and is the principal gas controlling surface air temperature by inhibiting leakage of the Earth’s heat back into outer space.
		Tyndall suggested that the sky is blue because molecules in the atmosphere preferentially scatter the sun’s blue rays.

		Tyndall contributed over the years to science columns in a number of popular middle class periodicals and did much to interest an important element of the Victorian public in the progress of science.
		Although the major part of Tyndall's scientific work was completed by the time he married, he continued his research on spontaneous generation, the germ theory and the propagation of science for many years after and his lectures and essays continued to preach the cause of science.

	A short biography of John Tyndall
		Tyndall was an evangelist for the cause of science (Burchfield) and he was convinced that traditional British education was outdated and detrimental.
		Tyndall visited the Alps for purposes of recreation in 1849 and began to go there yearly for the purpose of studying the glacier formation.
		Tyndall's experiments also showed that molecules of water vapour, carbon dioxide and ozone are the best absorbers of heat radiation and that even in small quantities these gases absorb much more strongly than the atmosphere itself, a phenomenon of great meteorological importance.

	No. 1067: Science, Religion, and John Tyndall
		Tyndall took on the thorny questions of cosmology and creation in 1874 when he delivered a famous lecture -- the Belfast Address.
		The odd subtext of that offer was that Faraday was intensely religious, and Tyndall was as fascinated with Faraday's convictions as he was with prayer, miracles, and cosmology.
		In that, Tyndall was a missionary -- inviting us all to join his search, to seek out our ignorance -- and surely to keep from making claims that outrun the scope of our own revelation.

		Victorian author-scientist John Tyndall is best known for a series of popular-scientific works collected as Fragments of Science and for his public role (with T.H. Huxley) in debates on science and religion.
		Off the regular paths of Victorian tourism, the perils Tyndall courts in his mountaineering are germane to a construction of an "anti-tourism" (to enlist James Buzard's term) specific to a Victorian- masculine subject of travel.
		I suggest in conclusion that in Tyndall's writing a peculiarly modern sensibility is emerging as travel for health redefines the life it would profit in light of a proximity to pathology and death.
