Motion Mountain - Light, Charges and Brains: Volume III of The Adventure of Physics
Christoph Schiller
1990
This book series is for anybody who is curious about motion in nature. How do things, people, animals, images and empty space move? The answer leads to many adventures, and this volume presents the best ones when exploring everything electric. They lead from the weighing of electric current to the use of magnetic fields to heal bone fractures and up to the use of light to cut metals and the understanding of the human brain.
In the structure of physics, motion due to electricity is the most fascinating aspect of the starting point at the bottom. Indeed, almost everything around us is due to electric processes. The present introduction to electricity, magnetism, light and the brain is the third of a six-volume overview of physics that arose from a threefold aim that I have pursued since 1990: to present motion in a way that is simple, up to date and captivating.
This work is a sequel of Motion Mountain - Relativity and Cosmology : Volume II of The Adventure of Physics.
Motion Mountain - The Quantum of Change: Volume IV of The Adventure of Physics is a sequel of this work.
