This Book - What is Electricity?Electricity is all around us. Everything we use in daily life seems to consume this magical force. But what is electricity? Where does it come from? How does it get to that outlet in the wall where we plug things in? What really IS this force?This is what we are going to explore in this book. The nature of electricity itself. Not how to create it, not how to use it, but what it IS. How it works. We will also touch on safety rules, as electricity is a powerful force, powerful enough to cause harm if not handled with respect.Hopefully this short “class” on the basic of electricity will inspire the reader to look further, seek deeper into the science and practicalities of electricity. This book is not intended to be the end, but the beginning of a long journey of exploration.Intended AudienceThe books in this series are all geared for those in a “love of learning” stage of their life. This is the stage where learning is fun, just for the sake of learning and exploring the world. No particular goal of doing something with the knowledge is necessary. “Love of Learners” like to learn just understand. This stage can be present at any actual age because it is not age based, it is curiosity based.The vocabulary and writing style used is intended to hold the attention of the younger reader. While the information is timeless, the presentation is a bit more conversational and fun, to appeal to the teen or preteen reader and keep them interested cover to cover. The older reader may enjoy the fresh approach also!How Does it Work – The SeriesUnderstanding how things work from the ground up, is the foundation of true knowledge. All too often we concentrate on how to “use” something, but spend little time on understanding how it actually “works”. The result is shallow knowledge, and inability to adapt, innovate or improve. It is my firm belief that knowledge must start with a deep understanding of how things actually work. Then and only then may we move into practicing the skills of how to use them.This book series, “How Things Work”, concentrates on exploring the fundamentals of how very ordinary things “work” in our world. Each book is a quick easy read with illustrations, presented much like a schoolroom class would be. In fact, these books are actually paraphrased transcripts from live teaching classes!
