• Notes

  Famous Mathematician, primarily for developing a mechanical device for changing linear motion into circular motion, now known as the "Lipkin Parallelogram." He remained poor all his life, in part because of the fact that he was Jewish in the academic world. He lived for a time in Petersburgh before returning to Koenigsberg. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Jena in 1870 and died five years later at the age of 30.
