Book excerpt: Excerpt from Makers of Electricity In recent times, many people have come to accept the impression that modern science leads to such an ex elusive occupation with things material, that scientists almost inevitably lose sight of the deeper significance of the world of mystery in which humanity finds itself placed on this planet. The lives of these great pioneers. In electricity, however, do not lend the slightest evidence in confirmation of any such impression. They were all of them firm believers in the existence of Providence, of a Creator, of man's responsibility for his acts to that.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Electricity A work on electricity needs little recom mendation to stimulate the interest of the gen eral reader. Electricity in its manifold applica tions is so large a factor in the comfort and con venience Of our daily life, SO essential to the industrial organization which embraces every dweller in a civilized land, so important in the development and extension of civilization itself, that a knowledge of its principles and the means through which they are directed to the service of mankind should be a part Of the mental equip ment of everyone who pretends to education in its truest sense. Let anyone stop to consider how he individually would be affected if all elec trical service were suddenly to cease, and he cannot fail to appreciate the claims of electricity to attentive study.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Age of Electricity, From Amber-Soul to Telephone For the most part, all historical data have been gath ered from publications contemporary with the date of first production of the several discoveries and inventions, and in many cases from the original writings of the inventors and discoverers themselves. As for sources of informa tion in general, the author can only say that there lie before him, at this writing, the first book on electricity ever written in the English language, - Robert Boyle's modest little pamphlet of 1675, and the latest numbers of the electrical journals, fresh from the press; and that he has ranged throughout the whole field of electrical literature anywhere and everywhere, in the most arbitrary manner, between these limits.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Intellectual Rise in Electricity: A History In this work I attempt to show how there came into the world the knowledge of the natural force, which we call electricity; a force which, within the memory of many now living, has found its most important applications to the needs of mankind, and which exhibits a promise and potency of future benefit, the full extent of which no one can safely venture to predict. The research has taken many years, has necessitated the gathering of a large collection of ancient, and now exceedingly scarce, writings, not commonly found even in great libraries, and the sifting of an immense mass of recorded facts and theories, often arising in fields far removed from those in which it might naturally be supposed the requisite data would be discovered. The Greek and Roman classics, the results of modern investigation into the old civilizations of Phoenicia, Egypt and even of people of prehistoric epochs, the Norse histories, the ancient writings of the Chinese and Arabs, the treatises of the Fathers of the Church, the works of mediaeval monks, magicians, cosmographers and navigators, the early poetry of modern France and Italy; these, mentioned at random, are some of the sources which have been drawn upon, together with the records of the experiments and discoveries of the natural philosophers of all ages.

Download or read book Elements of Applied Electricity Classic Reprint written by Howard Hamilton Bliss and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Applied Electricity What do you know about electricity? Can you explain simple circuits, losses, power and efficiency, wiring calculations, how generators and motors are installed, how they work, what efficiency means and how to calculate it, and how current for electric lighting and heating is estimated? "Know the fundamentals" is the cry of the hour. Here is a series of discussion which has appeared in the columns of the Journal of Electricity in cooperation with the Extension Division of the University of California on the all-important subject of elementary laws of electricity. The forwarding of this movement is a matter that strongly appeals to every member of the electrical industry - manufacturers, jobbers, central station men, electrical contractors and dealers-and has received the heartiest endorsement of the electrical industry from all quarters. These discussions which appeared in the columns of the Journal of Electricity during the year of 1919-1920 under the endorsement of the California Electrical Cooperative Campaign, an organization composed of all members of the electrical industry, have received wide and emphatic endorsement. The author, Mr. H. H. Bliss, for a number of years was head of the technical instruction of the Extension Division of the University of California, and while occupying that position gave this course through the University Extension in cooperation with the Journal of Electricity. The course proved unusually successful, and aroused interest throughout the West in the study of fundamentals. It is with this same hope that this group of papers may prove of increasing helpfulness that the Journal of Electricity has compiled these pages into book form in order that a permanent record may be had with these papers in one volume so that the biggest and most intensified use of this valuable collection may be offered to that ever growing group of young and enthusiastic us well as ambitious men in our industry who wish to forward themselves to greater remuneration from their employers and to greater usefulness in their chosen profession.
