Spark: The Life of Electricity and the Electricity of Life

byTimothy Jorgensen

But electricity is more than an external source of power, heat, or illumination. Spark rests its case on scientific research, fieldwork, and carefully chosen case studies, making room for uncertainty while explaining what the surviving evidence can establish. Spark also examines the assumptions surrounding its subject, connecting them to wider arguments in business & economics and science. The book leaves readers with a clearer understanding of the life of electricity and the electricity of life and of the unresolved questions that continue beyond its final chapter.
