Historical accounts of successful laboratories often consist primarily of reminiscences by their directors and the eminent people who studied or worked in these laboratories. Such recollections customarily are delivered at the celebration of a milestone in the history of the laboratory, such as the institution's fiftieth or one hundredth anniversary. Three such accounts of the Cavendish Laboratory at the University of Cambridge have been recorded. The first of these, A History of the Cavendish Laboratory, 1871-1910, was published in 1910 in honor of the twenty fifth anniversary of Joseph John Thomson's professorship there. The second, The Cavendish Laboratory, 1874-1974, was published in 1974 to commemorate the one hundredth anniversary of the Cavendish. The third, A Hundred Years and More of Cambridge Physics, is a short pamphlet, also published at the centennial of the 1 Cavendish. These accounts are filled with the names of great physicists (such as James Clerk Maxwell, Lord Rayleigh, J. J. Thomson, Ernest Rutherford, and William Lawrence Bragg), their glorious achievements (for example, the discoveries of the electron, the neutron, and DNA) and interesting anecdotes about how these achievements were reached. But surely a narrative that does justice to the history of a laboratory must recount more than past events. Such a narrative should describe a living entity and provide not only details of the laboratory's personnel, organization, tools, and tool kits, but should also explain how these components interacted within 2 their wider historical, cultural, and social contexts.

Excerpt from A History of the Cavendish Laboratory 1871-1910: With 3 Portraits in a Collotype and 8 Other Illustrations On December 22, 1909, Sir J. J. Thomson completed the twenty-fifth year of his tenure of the Cavendish Professorship of Experimental Physics in the University of Cambridge. At the beginning of that year the suggestion was made by some of the Professor's immediate colleagues that the occasion should be celebrated in some way which would commemorate a tenure so long and so full of achievement. There are many precedents, especially on the Continent, for such a celebration. In most cases it has taken the form of the publication of a volume of memoirs by various distinguished friends and admirers of the Professor, dealing with the subjects of their own special study. It seemed possible in the present case to publish a volume of a different character, and possibly of more lasting interest. Sir J. J. Thomson is the third holder of the Cavendish Professorship; perhaps there is no post in the world which has been held successively by three men of such supreme and such varied genius. Their work is closely associated with the Cavendish Laboratory, and has made it known throughout the world. It appeared, therefore, that Sir J. J. Thomson's twenty-five years' tenure of the Professorship might be fitly celebrated by the writing and publication of a History of the Cavendish Laboratory.
