(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, John Quincy Stewart was an American astrophysicist. He obtained his Ph.D. in physics from Princeton University in 1919. He taught astrophysics at Princeton from 1921 until he retired in 1963. Stewart was a civilian aeronautical engineer, an Army 1st Lieutenant, and later served as a chief instructor in the Army Engineering School, during World War I. He was later a research engineer in the American Telephone and Telegraph Company. He became interested in social physics in 1946, , demonstrating the use of physical laws in the area of social sciences, for example, demographic gravitation.
