First edition of Ohm’s first scientific paper and an important step towards the discovery of Ohm’s law. This article relates the first in a series of experiments on the galvanic circuit that lead towards his great work Die galvanische Kette (1827). ‘In it he sought a functional relationship between the decrease in the electromagnetic force exerted by a current-carrying wire and the length of the wire’ (DSB). Octavo (213 x 124mm). (A few faint spots.) Contemporary marbled boards, spine label titled in manuscript (faint vertical split along spine).
