From the author of the bestselling E=MC2 comes a mesmerizing journey of discovery illuminating the
wondrous yet unseen force that permeates our world and the scientists who\'ve probed its secrets. Before
1790, when Alessandro Volta began the scientific investigation that spurred an explosion of knowledge
and invention, electricity was perceived as little more than a property of certain substances that
sparked when rubbed. Now we know that this force is responsible for everything from the structure of
the atom to the functioning of our brains. Bodanis, a superb storyteller, tells a story filled with
romance, divine inspiration, fraud, and scientific breakthroughs revealing how we learned to harness
electricity\'s powers. The great scientists such as Michael Faraday and Samuel Morse come to life,
complete with all their brilliance and idiosyncrasy.
