Little Green men called “Greenies” were something I did not think I would read about when it comes to electricity in a university setting. I found this reading to be a pleasant surprise, as the information about electricity was conveyed to me in a genuinely interesting manner.
There were no boring statements in the text, as it was full of imagery and metaphors. I even shared some excerpts of the texts with friends, as I found them to be so whimsical but accurate of the things they were describing.
Not only that, but this text helped clear up a lot of the basics of electricity for me. In class I have used Ohm’s Law before, and calculated resistance in a circuit but I had never had some of these basic concepts defined for me. Things like static electricity and voltage; and not only were they defined for me, but were given to me with entertaining and memorable imagery.
Kenn Amdahl succeeded in his intent to make a non-dull, understandable book on electricity, because I truly want to read more.
