The Handbook of Natural Philosophy and Astronomy Second Course, Second Course: Heat, Common Electricity, Magnetism, Voltaic Electricity (1852) is a comprehensive textbook written by Dionysius Lardner. This book is a continuation of the first course and focuses on the study of heat, common electricity, magnetism, and voltaic electricity. The book is divided into four parts, each dedicated to one of the aforementioned topics. The first part covers heat and its various properties, including thermal expansion, specific heat, and the laws of thermodynamics. The second part delves into the study of common electricity, including electrical charges, conductors, insulators, and circuits. The third part of the book is dedicated to the study of magnetism, including the properties of magnets, magnetic fields, and the behavior of magnetic materials. Lastly, the fourth part of the book covers voltaic electricity, including the principles of electrochemistry, the construction and operation of batteries, and the applications of voltaic cells. Throughout the book, Lardner provides detailed explanations of the concepts and principles of natural philosophy and astronomy, making it an excellent resource for students and scholars alike. The Handbook of Natural Philosophy and Astronomy Second Course, Second Course: Heat, Common Electricity, Magnetism, Voltaic Electricity (1852) is a valuable addition to any library or collection of scientific literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
