""A Physical Theory of Electrification"" is a book written by Fernando Sanford in 1911. The book presents a comprehensive theory of electrification, which is the process of generating or accumulating electric charge on a material object. The author explains the fundamental principles of electrification, including the properties of electric charges, the mechanisms of charge transfer, and the factors that influence the accumulation of charge. Sanford's theory is based on the principle of conservation of energy and the concept of electric potential. He argues that electrification occurs when there is a transfer of energy from one object to another, resulting in a difference in electric potential between the two objects. The book also discusses the practical applications of electrification, such as in electrostatic generators, electric motors, and telegraphy. Overall, ""A Physical Theory of Electrification"" is an important contribution to the field of electromagnetism and provides a valuable insight into the nature of electric charge and its behavior. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and development of electrical theory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
