Publisher's Synopsis
The popularity of this presentation, in a style free from mathematical language, of the important facts and conclusions which modern science has brought forth in regard to the electrical nature of common matter, is shown by the necessity for a third edition of this work. The present edition has been entirely revised and the matter brought up to date, a procedure which has been rendered imperative by the rapidity with which new evidence is being developed by those whose lives are devoted to scientific research in this field. The volume is an excellent one for those who wish to become conversant with modern progress in this subject without the necessity of wading through mathematical demonstrations and developments of theory.
