| Summary | "Electricity and Magnetism" by Elisha Gray is a scientific publication likely written in the late 19th century. The book aims to explore the concepts of electricity and magnetism, delving into their historical development and practical applications. Gray, who spent years studying electricity, intends to make the complex topic accessible to a general audience, encouraging further interest in the natural sciences. The opening of the book introduces the author's intentions and sets the stage for a historical overview of electricity. Gray acknowledges the challenges in explaining the phenomena of electricity despite years of research and notes the importance of understanding historical contributions to the field. He hopes to inspire readers by highlighting significant advancements, such as Franklin's kite experiment and Volta's invention of the galvanic battery, while expressing a desire to demystify these concepts for those without scientific backgrounds. This introductory passage reflects Gray's aim to provide an engaging overview of electricity and magnetism, grounded in both practical relevance and historical context.
