Self-taught Victorian physicist celebrated with English Heritage blue plaque
The physicist, mathematician and electrical engineer, Oliver Heaviside, has been commemorated with a blue plaque, English Heritage announced today (22 April 2022). Heaviside’s biographer, Paul Nahin, once noted that his work on how to make a decent telephone cable plays a vastly greater role in our everyday lives than does the work of Einstein. The plaque marks the terrace house on Camden Street that Heaviside once described as “heaven in comparison” to his family’s previous house. It was here that the budding Victorian scientist continued with his self-education after leaving school at 16 and where he later worked on his ground-breaking interpretation of James Clerk Maxwell’s Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism, bridging the gulf between the theory of telecommunciations and its practice.
