Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

"The subject treated is exceedingly interesting as it is connected with a department of science which is working its way among the utilities of commercial enterprise, and the conveniencies and necessities of social life. My special object has been to invite attention to Electricity in its various relations with vitality. That which has been too long concealed underneath the technicalities of scientific phraseology, I have here attempted to put into popular and intelligible language. I believe electricity, within and around us, exercises a powerful influence over our capabilities for enjoying life, if indeed, it be not one of the principal causes of health and disease." - Preface. Chapters include: What is Meant by Animal Electricity?; The Human Body Electrical; Something About Magnetism; Electro-Magnetism; Muscular and Nervous Electrical Currents; The Human Electrical Current; Magnetoid Currents; and more. Includes twenty-seven appendices. vi, 182, lxii pp. Frontispiece illustration. "J.O.N. Rutter (1799-1888) led the Brighton Gas Light and Coke Company for almost fifty years and sold more than half a million publications promoting the domestic use of gas. In addition to chemistry, he devoted himself closely to electricity, upon which he gave popular lectures. In 1850 he patented an electric indicator, or fire and thief alarm. For forty years he had one of Alexander Bain's electric clocks at work. He was also a diligent meteorologist." - Royal Astronomical Society. Tight and unmarked with average wear to original attractively embossed dark olive cloth nicely lettered and decorated in gilt. Marbled edges. No dust jacket, presumably as issued. 19.7 x 13.4 cm. A sound and rare example of this fascinating work. ; 12mo. …
