The Universe a Vast Electric Organism
The universe is a vast electric organism -- Electricity produces all the phenomena of nature -- Electrical creation, briefly stated. It seems to solve the riddle of the universe -- Electrical creation more fully stated confirms scientific evolution -- Man is a soul clad in air, a spirit in an electric organism -- All light, heat and life evolved only in the atmosphere of suns and planets -- Electrical derangement of the bodily organism produce sickness and death -- Recent electric discoveries and appliances, wireless telegraphy, etc. -- Present science is in a dubious and chaotic condition -- Electrical creation explains natural philosophy -- Science and philosophy sustain the religious concept -- Human reason and the universe are books of God, as well as the Bible -- Love is the electric law of life: all that live must come from loving -- Jacob's ladder is the electric pathway between suns and planets -- This electric universe is self-sustaining and eternal -- Are all suns and worlds inhabited? -- The electrical theory of creation will save modern science from pantheism.

"The Universe a Vast Electric Organism" by George Woodward Warder is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book explores the author's theories regarding electricity as the fundamental force behind the universe's creation and operation, proposing that the cosmos functions as a vast electric organism. Warder argues that all phenomena of nature, including light and life, are manifestations of electrical energy, presenting a controversial perspective that challenges conventional scientific understanding. The opening of the work introduces Warder's central thesis by emphasizing the significance of electricity in the cosmos. He posits that the universe is not merely a collection of burning suns and planets but rather a self-sustaining system governed by electrical forces. The author offers personal anecdotes and observations, illustrating the profound impact of electric energy in natural phenomena and human life. Warder suggests that the creative forces of electricity are both the primary source of life and the mechanism by which all forms of existence are realized, setting the stage for a detailed exploration of these ideas throughout the text.
