| Title | Unpublished papers, 'Modifications of the electric fluid with demonstrative proof of the identity of the galvanic and ordinary electricities by analogical decomposition of water' by John Goodman |
| Creator | Goodman; John (fl 1840-1851) |
| Date | 22 October 1840 - 18 November 1840 |
| Description | Goodman shares two papers on the galvanic, frictional and magnetic electricities, presenting his observations on the experiments of Dr [William Hyde] Wollaston and Dr [Michael] Faraday. In the second paper he writes on imitating the electrochemical actions of the galvanic fluid by ordinary electricity, sharing details of his own experiments.
