This is Cavallo's main work (transl. from ""Complete treatise of Electricity in theory and practice with original experiments. London, 1777), and its descriptions of a huge number of electrical phenomena and experiments, are for most parts, original works on electricity.""...Tiberius Cavallo was a neopolitan settled in London where Volta met him in the spring of 1782. Cavallo had come to the metropolis in 1771 to study commerce, and remained to become the leading English electrician of the 1780s and a profilic writer of authoritative textbooks on natural philosophy, particularly electricity."" (Heilbron, Electricity in the 17th & 18th Venturies).""Cavallo's first studies (1775-1776) concerned atmospheric electricity, which he explored with Franklin kites and with improved detectors of his qwn invention, fashioned after Canton's pith-ball electroscope. Althoug little came of his investigations...they required a course of self-instruction that culminated in Cavallo's most importent work, A complete treatise...(1777).

First apperance of the Committee's paper, for the greatest part written by Cavendish. He was named the head of the Committee to review the entire body of meteorological instruments, and the Committee included also Heberden, Maskelyne, Aubert, Deluc and others.""Concurrently with his work on airs Cavendish published several papers on the freezing points of mercury, vitriolic acid, nitrous acid, and other liquids. This work was an extension of his published study of the Royal Society’s meteorological instruments in 1776 (the paper offered), and it drew heavily upon his early knowledge of latent heats.""(DSB).Together with Nevil Maskelyne ""Account of a new Instrument for measuring small Angles, called the prismatic Micrometer"".

Pp. 1-118 a. 2 folded engraved plates. Cavendish's paper: pp. 1-62. (the torsion balance of Michell shown on the plates).
First German edition of Cavendish's famous paper in which he calculated the weight of the earth and determined its mass. He also, as the first, observed gravitational motion of minute portions of matter. He estimates the earth's mass to 6,6 x 10 to the potential of 24 kg. The original paper ""Experiments to determine the Density of the Earth"" appeared in Philosophical Transaction, 1798.""Cavendish published five papers between 1784 and 1809...With one exception they were comparatively minor productions....The exception was his determination of the density of the earth or weighing of the world in 1798, by means of John Michell's torsion balance. The apparatus consisted of two lead balls on either end of a suspended beam" these movable balls were attracted by a pair of stationary lead balls. Cavendish calculated the the force of attraction between the balls fro the observed period of oscillation of the balance and deduced the density of the earth from the force. He found it to be 5.48 times that of water. Cavendish was the first to observe gravitational motions induced by comparatively minute portions of ordinary matter...By weighing the world he rendered the law of gravitation complete. The law was no longer a proportionally statement but a quantitatively exact one" this was the most importent addition to the science of gravitation since Newton.""(DSB III, p. 158.).

When the Purlfeet magazines were struck by lightning in 1777, the powder did not explode, and the buildings escaped serious damage (Weld, History of the Royal Society, 97).
