Excerpt from Treatises on Electricity, Galvanism, Magnetism, and Electro-Magnetism The design of the present work it to offer a condensed and methodical Treatise on that important department of Natural Philosophy which comprise the diversified phenomena of Electricity and Magnetism, These phenomena, which were formerly regarded as the effects of two perfectly distinct agents, are now discovered to have an intimate relation to one another, and, in all probability, to be dependent on one and the same principle: in like manner as it was found by Newton, that the simpler mechanical phenomena of the universe are the results of the single principle of gravitation. A succinct and connected account of the numerous discoveries which the exertions of philosophers have recently brought to light on this highly interesting branch of physical science, collected from the various scientific Journals and Transactions through which they are dispersed, and digested in a didactic order, seemed to be particularly wanting, and to be especially calculated to further the objects of the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge. In pursuance of this design, I have aimed at giving to the subjects treated as much condensation as was compatible with perspicuity. I have endeavoured to conduct the student, by a regular progression, from the simpler to the more complex topics of research; and I have also been anxious, by placing constantly before his view the distinction which exists between ascertained facts, and the hypotheses and theories devised for their explanation, to illustrate the precepts of Bacon by examples, and to foster that genuine spirit of philosophical inquiry by which alone error can be avoided and truth attained. For the many deficiencies which I fear the reader will discover in the completion of this design, I have to plead, in extenuation, the very scanty portion of leisure which the continual pressure of my professional duties leaves at my disposal. When I undertook this task, at the request of the Society, above four years ago, I was far from anticipating the extent of the labour it has imposed upon me; and from the multiplied interruptions to which I have been subject, I have been compelled to prosecute the work in a desultory manner, and at irregular and uncertain intervals.
