Synopsis
Explore the science of electricity and how it powers the modern world. This clear, student-friendly text explains why electricity flows, not just what it is, with practical experiments you can try at home or in class.
This edition presents topics like static electricity, how batteries and dynamos produce current, and how electrical work is done. It emphasizes hands-on learning through simple setups, step-by-step experiments, and vivid illustrations that keep concepts concrete and engaging. The book’s accessible style helps make zoology, biology, and physical science feel connected to real-world applications.
- Plain explanations of static electricity and how it differs from flowing current
- Step-by-step guidance on building simple battery cells and circuits
- Hands-on activities that demonstrate how electricity does work
- Illustrations and practical notes to reinforce understanding
Ideal for high school study, this edition aims to make the subject practical and relevant to today’s world, while lifting science to a central place in the curriculum.
Ideal for readers who want a clear, practical introduction to electricity and everyday technology, with plenty of experiments to reinforce learning.

Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
