Download or read book Electric Universe written by David Bodanis and published by Crown. This book was released on 2006-02-28 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bestselling author of E=mc2 weaves tales of romance, divine inspiration, and fraud through an account of the invisible force that permeates our universe—electricity—and introduces us to the virtuoso scientists who plumbed its secrets. For centuries, electricity was seen as little more than a curious property of certain substances that sparked when rubbed. Then, in the 1790s, Alessandro Volta began the scientific investigation that ignited an explosion of knowledge and invention. The force that once seemed inconsequential was revealed to be responsible for everything from the structure of the atom to the functioning of our brains. In harnessing its power, we have created a world of wonders—complete with roller coasters and radar, computer networks and psychopharmaceuticals. In Electric Universe, the great discoverers come to life in all their brilliance and idiosyncrasy, including the visionary Michael Faraday, who struggled against the prejudices of the British class system, and Samuel Morse, a painter who, before inventing the telegraph, ran for mayor of New York City on a platform of persecuting Catholics. Here too is Alan Turing, whose dream of a marvelous thinking machine—what we know as the computer—was met with indifference, and who ended his life in despair after British authorities forced him to undergo experimental treatments to “cure” his homosexuality. From the frigid waters of the Atlantic to the streets of Hamburg during a World War II firestorm to the interior of the human body, Electric Universe is a mesmerizing journey of discovery.

Book excerpt: Electricity is an essential part of modern society. Without it, our economies would collapse. But few people know about electrical energy facts. These are some interesting electrical energy facts you should know. In this book, we'll review some of the most important facts about electricity and its sources. You'll also learn how electricity is produced. So, what are some of these facts? Read on to find out! And don't forget to share these facts with your friends and family. Voltage is the force required to move electrons from one electrode to the other. The higher the voltage, the stronger the current. A single spark of electricity measures about 3,000 volts. Lightning, on the other hand, can be as high as three million volts. It's also important to understand that a single bolt of lightning can contain enough energy to light 100 bulbs for 24 hours or to toast thousands of bread. Electricity was discovered in around 1600 A.D. by William Gilbert, who studied electricity and magnetism and invented the term. Electrical energy is measured in watts or megawatts. A watt is the amount of energy needed to operate a gadget. A megawatt is equal to a million watts. Electricity comes in two forms, alternating current and direct current. Direct current is energy that flows in a straight line while alternating current changes direction periodically. Both forms of electricity are widely used in homes. And it's no wonder that heating and cooling expenditures make up half of a typical American's energy bill.
