Synopsis

This book provides a definitive overview of the history of human understanding of electricity, from the earliest known classical theories of the ancient Greeks to the discovery of electromagnetic radiation and the invention of the transistor and integrated circuit. The author places the development of electromagnetism and electrical engineering within the broader context of our scientific and technological development. It also examines the contributions of many unsung geniuses and inventors whose work has often been overlooked. It does not simply provide a historical account but also explores the fundamental principles of electromagnetism, with a particular emphasis on their practical applications. The book's insights into the relationship between electromagnetism and technology will fascinate anyone with an interest in science.
