Product details
The book "Hans Christian Ørsted and the Romantic Legacy in Science" offers a comprehensive analysis of the life and scientific contributions of Hans Christian Ørsted, one of the founders of modern physics. Ørsted is known for his groundbreaking discovery of the interaction between electricity and magnetism in 1820, which is considered a crucial step towards the unification of natural forces. This work not only highlights Ørsted's discoveries in electromagnetism but also his contributions in other areas such as high-pressure physics and acoustics. Furthermore, Ørsted is examined in the context of the romantic tradition of natural philosophers, influenced by thinkers like Immanuel Kant. The philosophical and scientific considerations of Ørsted and his contemporaries, including significant figures like André-Marie Ampère and Michael Faraday, are also discussed, emphasizing their impact on the industrial revolution and modern civilization.
