Lewis Fry Richardson
Lewis Fry Richardson, FRS〔 (11 October 1881 – 30 September 1953) was an English mathematician, physicist, meteorologist, psychologist and pacifist who pioneered modern mathematical techniques of weather forecasting, and the application of similar techniques to studying the causes of wars and how to prevent them.

==Early life==
Lewis Fry Richardson was the youngest of seven children born to Catherine Fry (1838–1919) and David Richardson (1835–1913). They were a prosperous Quaker family, David Richardson operating a successful tanning and leather manufacturing business.〔Hunt, p. xiv〕
At age 12 he was sent to a Quaker boarding school, Bootham School〔(''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'' )〕 in York, where he received an education in science, which stimulated an active interest in natural history. In 1898 he went on to Durham College of Science (a college of Durham University) where he took courses in mathematical physics, chemistry, botany, and zoology. Two years later, he gained a scholarship to King's College, Cambridge, where he graduated with first-class honours in the natural sciences tripos in 1903.〔Hunt, p. xv〕 At age 47 he received a doctorate in mathematical psychology from the University of London.〔(Lewis Fry Richardson )〕
