Thomson, J. J. over 25 Period Journals Containing Many of His Most Important Works

Over 30 Journals and articles by J. J. Thomson, including the early work with cathode rays that led Thomson to the discovery of the electron. Includes some of his later work as well as his obituary written by several luminaries as well as Nobel prize receptors of the time in Nature. an important archive
