The wordis derived from the name of the celebrated Luigi many are not acquainted with the circumstance it will bein order to narrate what led to the discovery of day one of his pupils noticed a sudden and strangemovement on a muscle of a frog that had been skinned,and which was in contact with a copper wire. Galvanifollowed up this discovery, coming to the conclusion thatsuch a phenomenon could be brought about by an electricalmachine, as every contact of the metal with the nervesof the muscle caused the convulsive motions. He tookthat to be the cause of the animals electric power, themuscles and nerves being like the armature of a repeated and discussed the experiments
