Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from DC Conductivity Measurements of Metals
For over a hundred years, physicists have attempted to describe the phenomena of electrical conduction in metals. At the beginning of the 1900's, Drude developed his classical theory based on the concept of a gas of free electrons. Although this theory has limitations because it ignores the quantum behavior of the electron, the classical model does present some useful insight into electrical conduction and the calculation of electrical conductivity.
