I thought the 'real' info on Maxwell was hard to come by?
I just did a search on Amazon.com and found TONS of work
by him? Most of the books he wrote can be had for very
cheap, 10 bucks for paperbacks. There is also what appears
to be a complete collection of his papers and letters from
the 1800's?

The Scientific Letters and Papers of James Clerk Maxwell : 1862-1873
James Clerk Maxwell, P.M. Harman (Editor)

Hardcover Vol 002 (May 1995)
Cambridge Univ Pr (Short); ISBN: 0521256267

Am I missing something? Is the original quaternion math found
within these texts? Anybody know?

-- I dread success. To havesucceeded is to have finishedone's business on earth, likethe male spider, who is killedby the female the moment he hassucceeded in his courtship.

I like a state of continualbecoming, with a goal in frontand not behind.

-- George Bernard Shaw
