Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. Michael Faraday's On the Various Forces of Nature and Their Relations to Each Other began as a series of six Christmas Lectures delivered before a juvenile audience at the Royal Institution in 1859. In them, Faraday - one of the greatest experimental scientists of the nineteenth century - guides his listeners through the fundamental forces governing the natural world: gravitation, cohesion, chemical affinity, heat, magnetism, and electricity, revealing at every step the deep connections binding them together.Faraday possessed a rare gift for making complex ideas vivid and immediate. Born in 1791 to a poor family and largely self-educated, he rose to become one of the most celebrated scientific minds of his age, responsible for foundational discoveries in electromagnetism and electrochemistry. By the time he delivered these lectures he had already demonstrated the connection between magnetism and light, and had spent decades attempting to show that the forces of nature were not isolated phenomena but aspects of a single underlying reality. That conviction animates every lecture in this volume, giving them a unity of purpose that elevates them well above the level of mere popular instruction.The lectures were taken down by a shorthand reporter and subsequently edited by William Crookes. The result is a text that reads with unusual directness and warmth, reflecting the qualities that made Faraday one of the most beloved lecturers of his era.This edition is based on the 1894 Chatto & Windus publication. The page numbers of that edition are supplied in the margins to facilitate cross-referencing and citation. A lecture on lighthouse illumination appended to the 1894 edition has been omitted, as it was not part of the original six-part series delivered under the name A Course of Six Lectures on the Various Forces of Matter, and Their Relations to Each Other. A legendary experimentalist unveils the hidden threads connecting gravity, magnetism, and light, revealing how the diverse powers of the universe weave together into a single, magnificent tapestry.
