The British physicist Sir Joseph John Thomson, the discoverer of
the electron, published the first edition of his Elements of the
Mathematical Theory of Electricity and Magnetism in 1895; this
fourth edition was issued in 1909, three years after he was awarded
the Nobel Prize in Physics for his theoretical and experimental
investigations on the conduction of electricity by gases. In this
book for students his intention is to give 'an account of the
fundamental principles of the mathematical theory of electricity
and magnetism and their more important applications, using only
simple mathematics.' Starting at the basic level of describing
electrical phenomena such as rubbing a stick of sealing wax with
cloth to produce a charge, he guides the reader through
electrostatics, induction, magnetism, thermoelectric currents and
the theory of light. This textbook, by one of the greatest
scientists of his day, is still a fascinating introduction to the
topic.
