A New Theory, Accounting For The Dip Of The Magnetic Needle

Focusing on terrestrial magnetism, this scientific work by James Barlow introduces a new theory explaining the dip of the magnetic needle. It offers an analysis of key concepts such as the lines of variation and no variation. Written in a technical style, the book targets readers familiar with physics and magnetism. Originally published in 1835, it remains a notable contribution to magnetic theory. The reprinted edition aims to preserve the cultural significance of the original work, despite potential imperfections from the facsimile process.
