Pr�sentation de l'�diteur

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.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intriguing world of the divining rod, an ancient practice used to locate underground water sources. The author presents a detailed argument, bolstered by personal anecdotes and historical accounts, that the divining rod's effectiveness is rooted in the power of electricity and not, as many have believed, superstition. Exploring the subject through a scientific lens, the author challenges the prevailing skepticism surrounding this practice, drawing parallels with the scientific advancements of the time, such as the telegraph, and the ongoing exploration of electricity. Through a series of experiments and observations, the author demonstrates his theory and offers a practical approach to using the divining rod, even suggesting a potential method for determining the depth of the water source. The book dives into the historical context of the divining rod, citing its use as far back as the time of Moses and highlighting its enduring presence in cultures across Europe, particularly in England, France, and Germany. The author draws on historical accounts from renowned thinkers, including Sir David Brewster, and provides anecdotal evidence from diverse individuals who have experienced the divining rod's efficacy, including a nobleman's wife and a Swiss gentleman. This fascinating exploration into the scientific underpinnings of the divining rod challenges conventional thinking and opens the door to a deeper understanding of the complex and often overlooked power of electricity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781332230242_0
