It's amazing how much he accomplished. But he didn't care about credit, so most of his work remained buried in his notebooks until Maxwell unearthed it. Makes you wonder how many other great discoveries are lying around, hidden in notebooks or obscure journals, without anyone realizing the significance.
…“a web of naked fantasies [...] the result of an incurable delusion, whose sole effort is to detract from the dignity of nature...” Lol
I still think it's clever they promoted Ohm's Law partly due to his name as the electrical hum of voltage running through a multimeter produces a tiny cosmic (Hindu) 'OM' or A-U-M; Ava Maria is also esoterically written AVM from ye olde days, the literal 'Spirit' aka the plasma or ether, pure potentiality.
Ohm's Law = the law of Om or AUM... someone was laughing, somewhere.
Interesting the notes about Henry Cavendish....

Wait until we discuss the name of the vector that points in the direction EM energy flows!
If you Poynt in the right direction, U mov(e)?
It's called the "Poynting Vector." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Henry_Poynting
Das rite, the Umov-Poynting vector... I guess I shouldn't try to be funny with physicists. :(

An engrossing story. Perhaps most fascinating it the resistance encountered to experimental findings.
this is the old old story of how human progress has been hobbled for as long as there have been humans
