The explanation of all phenomena of electromagnetic attraction or repulsion, and of electromagnetic induction, is to be looked for simply in the inertia and pressure of the matter of which the motions constitute heat. Whether this matter is or is not... Proceedings of the Royal Society of London - Page 140by Royal Society (Great Britain) - 1857Full view - About this book
