Francis Wylie

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sir Francis Wylie was the Warden of Rhodes House at Oxford University.

Wylie presented the Einstein blackboard in the Museum of the History of Science in Oxford (saved by the University don E. J. Bowen on 16 May 1931) after Albert Einstein's series of three lectures at Rhodes House that year.

In 1941, Wylie succeeded Sir William Fraser-Tytler as British minister in Kabul, Afganistan.

During the 1950s, Wylie wrote reports for the Suez Canal Company to the British government [1].
