The Handbook of Natural Philosophy and Astronomy Second Course, Second Course: Heat, Common Electricity, Magnetism, Voltaic Electricity is a book written by Dionysius Lardner and originally published in 1852. The book is a comprehensive guide to the study of natural philosophy and astronomy, with a focus on the topics of heat, common electricity, magnetism, and voltaic electricity. The book is divided into several sections, each of which covers a different aspect of these topics. The section on heat, for example, covers topics such as the nature of heat, the laws of thermodynamics, and the various methods of measuring temperature. The section on common electricity covers topics such as electric charges, electric fields, and electric currents, while the section on magnetism covers topics such as magnetic fields, magnetic materials, and the behavior of magnets.The final section of the book is devoted to the topic of voltaic electricity, which is the study of the electrical properties of batteries and other devices that generate electricity through chemical reactions. This section covers topics such as the history of voltaic electricity, the principles of electrochemistry, and the various types of batteries and other voltaic devices.Overall, the Handbook of Natural Philosophy and Astronomy Second Course, Second Course: Heat, Common Electricity, Magnetism, Voltaic Electricity is a valuable resource for students and researchers in the fields of natural philosophy and astronomy, as well as for anyone interested in the study of heat, electricity, and magnetism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
