Catalogue Note
Le traité expose l'ensemble des travaux d'Ampère (1775-1836) concernant l'existence et les effets de l'électromagnétisme dont il est le fondateur. Il crée la notion de courant électrique.
"Il formule son hypothèse par une loi : deux fils conducteurs traversés par un courant électrique exercent l'un sur l'autre une action réciproque. Pour les besoins de l'expérience, il invente le galvanomètre, et met en évidence le vocable « Intensité »" (Ph. Zoummeroff, En français dans le texte).
