1834In 1834, Heinrich Lenz stands in his dimly lit study, quill in hand, as he scribbles the principles of electromagnetic induction. His mind races with the implications of his law, dictating that the direction of induced electromotive force opposes the change that created it. The air crackles with the promise of a new understanding of electricity, forever altering the landscape of physics.
