Sex and the Scientist: The Indecent Life of Benjamin Thompson, Count Rumford (1753-1814)
Jane Merrill
One of the preeminent natural philosophers of the Enlightenment, Benjamin Thompson started out as a farm boy, became successful in world affairs, and was knighted by George III. Thompson was also popular with women - so much so that his personal life eclipsed his achievements. Drawing on Thompson's correspondence and diaries, this book examines his friendships and romantic relationships.
