""A Reply To Mr. Cooke�������s Pamphlet, The Electric Telegraph: Was It Invented By Professor Wheatstone?"" is a book written by Charles Wheatstone in 1855. The book is a response to a pamphlet written by William Cooke, which claimed that he was the sole inventor of the electric telegraph. Wheatstone, who had also been working on the development of the telegraph, refuted Cooke's claims and provided evidence to support his own contributions to the invention. The book includes a detailed history of the development of the telegraph and the various individuals involved in its creation. It also provides technical information about the workings of the telegraph and the different inventions that led to its creation. Overall, ""A Reply To Mr. Cooke�������s Pamphlet, The Electric Telegraph: Was It Invented By Professor Wheatstone?"" is an important historical document that sheds light on the development of one of the most significant technological breakthroughs of the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Sir Charles Wheatstone (1802-75) was a shoemaker's son whose fascination with physics led him to become one of the most celebrated scientists and inventors of his time. Apprenticed to his uncle, a musical instrument manufacturer, Wheatstone studied the physics of sound, publishing his first scientific paper in 1823. He was the chief developer of telegraphy, inventing increasingly advanced instruments for transmitting and receiving information. Telegraphy revolutionized communication in the Victorian era, eventually making almost instantaneous global communication possible. This collection of Wheatstone's works, first published in 1879, spans his entire career and includes fully illustrated details of many of his pioneering inventions. His broad-ranging research led to numerous important advances; those in telegraphy and cryptography were still in military use as late as the Second World War. This collection is a valuable source for the history of science, and a fitting tribute to Wheatstone's 'industry and versatility'.
