add to cart   close window

Llewellyn Jones was born in Castletown, Isle of Man, shortly after the publication of Charles Darwin's "Origin of Species." Thus Jones may be said to have become an intellectual radical early in his career. However, he lived in a town which by American standards was old. The castle which gave it its name and its historic importance was built in the tenth century-at least its nucleus was. Before coming to the U.S. Llewellyn Jones had stopped a course of education which was designed to make him, a science teacher in the English board schools-he found mathematics too much for him and had gone to work on a newspaper.
