    Didn't know how much i needed this as an adhd female physics student with a very non lineair career and life path. Seems like our stumbling isn't only our weakness, but also our strength is the reassurence i needed. You are such a delight and so brave!!!!

    Thanks Kathy. I wonder the degree to which Heaviside's misapprehending the quaternion significance of the 'twirl' dimension has maybe contributed to a century and a half of 3-dimensional bias and materialist cognitive imprisonment? It's like Heaviside and Co, lived in the quaternion version of Flatland. It makes sense why he wanted to drop what he saw as unnecessarily superfluous math at that time yet a little knowledge is a dangerous thing... and shortcuts can lead to dead ends.

    The story moves me because my father, who recently passed, worked for a while at Bell Labs, in Holmdel, NJ, and our the basement of my childhood home was filled with all kinds of electronic lab bench gear and jars of electronic components, including transistors. The resulting enthusiasm for understanding transistor circuits, got me into the gifted and talented program in elementary school. I learned a lot about electronics at a very early age in that environment, my father’s encouraged access to the ideas and the tools was key, and am still passionate about diving into the most subtle aspects of electronic theory and practice. I suspect there are many more hidden discoveries yet to be made by similarly curious, serious, and bold enthusiasts. Let these videos encourage more of the same! Electricity is where the action is, literally and figuratively. Optics is a close second, lol. Science is stuck in an axiomatic log-jam, raise a glass to the spirit shon here!

    Oh, your history of electricity videos are so comprehensive and fun to follow, and your enthusiasm and warmth is so contagious. This detailed story-telling format of the rise of greatness and the controversies and challenges along the way, is the universal format to do such important innovation history full justice; this is a master class on how to present the history of ideas. A truly wonderful and exceptional production.

    This is why many homes didn't have electricity yet even after it was discovered years ago. Transformers still needed to be put up so that households could use the correct amount of electricity to prevent fires. Which actually did happen, there were several power surges early on until they got it right.

    You can't mention Faraday without mentioning Maxwell and you can't mention Maxwell without mentioning Faraday -- one, the experimentalist, laid the groundwork for Maxwell to give Faraday's work mathematical rigor. And you also mentioned several others that contributed to our understanding. Scientists like Gauss and Coulomb and even Benjamin Franklin. There are few things in science that modernity depends on more than Faraday and Maxwell.

    I also have just one suggestion: this has a lot of information, but it may be a bit fast paced (of course it was no issue for me to watch twice, but it may be for others, just a thought).

    Exactly! I had a thought experiment that would place a 1 meg resistor a mile away. Would the bulb light? No. Permittivity is about 10^-11 per meter. That power pulse outside the wire does nothing. This was click bait. They want to shock (not electrically). I use wires in my circuits. Electrons flow inside them. This is not microwave.
