Excerpt from Magnetic Induction in Iron, and Other Metals During recent years, and especially during the last ten, our knowledge of the physical facts of Magnetisation has made a marked advance. Perhaps no subject has profited more by the beneficent reaction of Practice on Science. The labours of a number of observers have made it possible to present a connected account of the phenomena of magnetic induction and of the distinctive qualities of the magnetic family of metals. There are still, of course, many questions for experiment to answer; but a text-book of the subject may now be written with some degree of continuity and completeness. In attempting this task, the author has not approached the matter from the standpoint of the scientific historian. He has been more concerned to tell of things discovered than of discoverers. In many instances, therefore, the work of early observers is passed over with no mention, or with the briefest, because later experiments are found to deal with the same points in a more conclusive or more exhaustive way. The author's aim has been to present the subject in sufficient detail to satisfy scientific students, as well as to meet the wants of those who may turn to the book in quest of data for application to matters of practice.
