By Georg Pickel

"Abhandlung ber Blitzableiter" by Georg Pickel, translated as "Treatise on Lightning Rods", delves into the construction and efficacy of lightning rods, offering a proposal for a novel protective system against lightning damage. This historical work provides insights into 19th-century engineering and technology, exploring the scientific understanding of electromagnetism during that era. It examines methods of lightning protection relevant to buildings and other structures.

This book is valuable for those interested in the history of technology, electrical engineering, and the science of lightning. Pickel's treatise showcases the practical application of scientific principles in addressing a significant safety concern, contributing to our understanding of early lightning protection systems.
