Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Originally published in 1926, this textbook is the second edition
of a 1918 original, and provides a detailed and engaging
introduction on the theory of electricity. 'As in the first edition
the object has been to present a complete account of the purely
theoretical side of the subject in the only form in which it
appears to be satisfactory from the point of view both of
mathematical consistency and of physical completeness'. Notably,
particular attention has been given to the formulation of the
underlying physical principles and to their translation into a
mathematical theory. Tailored to suit the needs of undergraduates
and presenting the facts and examples in an accessible manner, the
book assumes prior knowledge of the subject and the mathematics
necessary for a full understanding. Providing essential knowledge
and skills for those embarking on the study of electricity, this
book will be of value to scholars of physics.
Liven A. Peterson, Jr., was born February 19, 1917, in Virginia,
MN, a mining town on the Mesaba Iron Range in the wild Arrowhead
Country of that state. Little "Pete" took off on his kiddy car to
explore the woods when he was four years old and he has been doing
so ever since. He spent a large part of his spare time hunting,
fishing, and enjoying nature. When he enrolled at the University of
Minnesota in 1936, he selected wildlife biology as his major. After
graduation in 1939 and Army service during WWII, he joined the
River Basin Studies Branch of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
He was stationed at Billings, Montana; Grand Island, Nebraska;
Minneapolis, Minnesota; and Boise, Idaho before retiring in 1972.
He traveled across the Midwest and Northwest doing field work on
many water development projects during his professional career.
These are his collected stories and recollections of 97-years.
