Sobre este artículo
Wheeler notes "This book is among the first works on electricity printed in America. The author considers electricity to be the main cause of animal and vegetable life." It is the first American work cited by Sidney Licht's scholarly book Therapeutic Electricity and Ultraviolet Radiation. Other references note it is probably the first book on [medical] electricity published in America.
