with Gravity, Electricity, and Magnetism and A Contribution to Electrodynamics (1876) by Bernhard Riemann, translated from the German by James J. Cleary, Jr.
A penetrating historical analysis of the development of electromagnetic theory. It has pungent criticisms of the way in which standard textbooks have assigned credit for priorities and conceptual contributions. - [/php2/index.php?tab0=Scientists&tab1=Display&id=811 Dr. Winston H. Bostick]
An invaluable introduction to the physical theory of electricity and magnetism from the viewpoint of its historical development. It is a refreshing attempt to seek a novel interpretation of the concepts of energy and nonlinearity through the self-organizing tendency of electrodynamic systems. I strongly recommend this book to both laymen and students for its imaginative and provocative treatment - Dr. Frederick Tappert
