About this deck
Electricity and magnetism look like separate phenomena. They are not. Maxwell's 1865 paper showed they are aspects of one field — and that field's waves travel at exactly the speed of light. Light, then, is electromagnetism. Key sections include: Electro magnetism.; Opening One field for two forces.; Chapter I Lodestones and amber.; Chapter II The inverse square law.; Chapter III The pile.; Chapter IV The first link.; Chapter V The other direction.; Chapter VI Maxwell's unification.; Chapter VII Light is a wave.; Chapter VIII Radio waves..
