The Force that Changed the World documents the massive change electricity has had on the civilized world over the past century, and what it holds for the future. The ancient Greeks first discovered attractive electric forces when they rubbed amber with wool. In 1600, William Gilbert discovered that glass and diamonds behaved like amber and called these materials "electrics," based on the term electrum, the Latin word for amber. From Ben Franklin to Alessandro Volta, Andre Ampere, and George Ohm, advances in understanding electricity were made. From the telephone to the television and from the refrigerator to air conditioning, we have reached the point where the whole world is but a key stroke away.
