Publisher's Synopsis
Electricity And Matter is a book written by Joseph J. Thomson and published in 1904. The book covers the fundamental principles of electricity and the relationship between electricity and matter. It is divided into two parts, the first part deals with the properties of electricity and the second part deals with the properties of matter.In the first part, Thomson discusses the nature of electricity, the laws of electric attraction and repulsion, and the principles of electrical conduction. He also explores the properties of electric currents, including resistance, capacitance, and inductance. Thomson then goes on to discuss the nature of electromagnetic waves and their properties.In the second part of the book, Thomson discusses the properties of matter, including the structure of atoms and molecules, the behavior of gases, and the properties of solids and liquids. He also explores the properties of radiation, including X-rays and radioactivity.Overall, Electricity And Matter is a comprehensive and detailed exploration of the fundamental principles of electricity and matter. It is a seminal work in the field of physics and remains a valuable resource for students and researchers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
