A summary view of the spontaneous electricity of the earth and atmosphere; wherein the causes of lightning and thunder, as well as the constant electrification of the clouds and vapours, suspended in the air, are explained. With some new experiments and observations, tending to illustrate the subject of atmospherical electricity; to which is subjoined the atmospherico-electrical journal, kept during two years, as presented to and published by the Royal society of London
