Oui P9 (V EDITORS PREFACE. A SUFFICIENT reason for republishing anE nglish translation o{ the wonderful book of Professor O. S. Ohm is the difficulty with which the only previous translation (that ofT aylor sS cientific Memoirs) is procurable. Besides this, however, the intrinsic value of the book is so great, that it should be read by all electricians who care for more than superficial knowledge. It is most remarkable to note at this time, how completely Ohm has investigated the subject, and how far in advance of his age he was. It is well said by Chrystal, in his great Encyclopaedia Britannica article onE lectricity, that Ohm rendered a great service to the science of electricity by publishing his mathematical theory of the galvanic circuit. Before his time, the quantitative circumstances of the electric current had been indicated, in a vague way, by the use of the terms intensity and quantity, to which no accurately defined meaning was attached.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating realm of galvanic electricity, a branch of electrical science that explores the phenomena arising from the contact of different bodies. Emerging during a time of burgeoning scientific discovery, the author's work stands as a testament to his foresight and meticulous investigation. Grounded in three fundamental laws, the book meticulously examines the behavior of electricity within circuits. It elucidates the principles governing the distribution of electricity within a body, its dispersion in the surrounding atmosphere, and its manifestation at the junction of dissimilar bodies. The author's keen observations and experiments led to groundbreaking discoveries, including the concept of 'tension' (now known as voltage) and the identification of factors influencing the flow of electrical current. With remarkable clarity, the author presents a mathematical framework for understanding the intricacies of electrical circuits, drawing inspiration from existing theories of heat propagation. This book unveils the profound connections between seemingly disparate natural phenomena, offering readers a deeper appreciation for the underlying unity of scientific principles. The author's pioneering work laid the foundation for the development of electrical science, paving the way for countless technological advancements that shape our present day. His insights into the nature of electrical circuits continue to resonate with engineers and scientists, making this book an enduring classic in the field of physics.
