Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Medical Application of Electro-Magnetism
As in metals and other inorganic matter, so in organized inanimate, and all animated beings, there resides a specific electric charge. This charge is not uniformly distributed, even in one and the same indi vidual body. In the animal system, the extent of the charge in the nerves is very different from that in the muscles; hence, each indi vidual organism in the animal body has its specific charge of the elec tric matter.
