Father of Electricity - William Gilbert
Thursday November 20, 2003
William Gilbert first coined the term "electricity" from the Greek word for amber. Gilbert wrote about the electrification of many substances in his "De magnete, magneticisique corporibus". He was also the first person to use the terms electric force, magnetic pole, and electric attraction.


I’m doing an assignment on him, Galvani, Volta and Franklin =)
i still don’t understand what he discovered about electricity. All i know is that he found out about the north and south pole’s pulling compasses pins towards them!
