This is a translation of William Gilbert's groundbreaking work, "De Magnete, Magneticisque Corporibus, et de Magno Magnete Tellure; Physiologia Nova, Plurimis Argumentis & Experimentis Demonstrata," originally published in 1600. Translated by P. Fleury Mottelay, this edition makes Gilbert's pivotal research accessible to a wider audience. "On the Loadstone and Magnetic Bodies, and on the Great Magnet the Earth" presents Gilbert???(TM)s revolutionary ideas about magnetism and electricity, establishing him as one of the founders of modern science.
