...James's work is not quite the sort which wins a Nobel Prize in physics nowadays. The Nobel tendency in recent years has been to reward workers with the sub-atomic-X-ray effects (Taman, Compton), wave mechanics (de Broglie), electron count (Millikan), atomic structure (Bohr), quantum hypothesis (Planck), forces (Einstein). Sir James has the mathematical baggage and creative imagination requisite for joining that group. But he applies himself to descriptions of the universe and its relatively minute stellar components. It was for that work that the Franklin Institute deemed him worthy of U. S. Physics' top medal...

...second role, one which scientists are beginning to recognize, is the fundamental part Mathematics is playing and is going to play in the development of the physical sciences. The spectacular achievements of Einstein, Bohr, and Milkman bring this fact forcible to light. These men admit that the former and more simple laws of physics, in relation to the conservation of energy and mass, are inadequate...
