This book introduces modern readers to Michael Faraday’s great nineteenth-century lectures on The Chemical History of a Candle. This companion to the RUclips series contains supplemental material to help readers appreciate Faraday’s key insight that “there is no more open door by which you can enter into the study of science than by considering the physical phenomena of a candle.” Through a careful examination of a burning candle, Faraday’s lectures introduce readers to the concepts of mass, density, heat conduction, capillary action, and convection currents. They demonstrate the difference between chemical and physical processes, such as melting, vaporization, incandescence, and all types of combustion. And the lectures reveal the properties of hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide, including their relative masses and the makeup of the atmosphere. The lectures wrap up with a grand, and startling, analogy: by understanding the chemical behavior of a candle the reader can grasp the basics of respiration. To help readers understand Faraday’s key points this book has an “Essential Background” section that explains in modern terms how a candle works, introductory guides for each lecture written in contemporary language, and seven student activities with teaching guides.

Since many people are complaining, I thought I'd say that I for one watched the whole thing first then again with commentary, and I'm glad you released them together.
Thanks so much for all your efforts, for your meticulous research and presentation, for adapting the content so well to this new medium without diluting, pandering or dumbing down in any way, and finally also for your choice of license. This is a real gift to the world!
Totally agree.
Complaining?
@@agoogleuser2507 there were many negative comments about uploading a whole bunch of videos all at once
please return. the RUclips viewers miss new content.
+Warrior Son not dead ... wrote a book see www.engineerguy.com/airship .. working on new vid
engineerguy do select tech dumbells
Looking forward to it :D
These lectures have been amazing, I enjoied every moment. Maybe my favorite part of school for the week is writing notes on faradays lectures. Love how entertaining you created them, keep it up.
Thank you
@@engineerguyvideo no, thank you :D
That message at the end ; 'Be as pure as a candle' ,brought a tear to my eye.
Don't be sad Bill, you put a lot of work into your videos, people are just a little overwhelmed by the amount. Keep up the good work!
Thx for support ... perhaps should have left them unlisted, but then they don't show up in search ....
I think if you put them in a playlist and made all but the first of each unlisted that could be the best compromise, I believe you can name the playlist and that will show up in the search instead.
and then you could also make those videos public one by one
Your videos are great, you made one mistake in uploading and people are overreacting, remember that the negatives will always overshadow the positives in RUclips comments. Most people love your videos even though looking at these comments it might not seem so. I love your channel keep up the good work!
Ps. Even though the views have fallen of, please think about that you are entertaining and lecturing thousands of people instead of a handful in a classroom
im not a nerd but i learn a lot from this channel
thanks engineer guy
Fascinating gentleman. Thank you for opening my eyes and the door for a desire for greater learning and understanding.
Thank you for all the time and energy you put into all of the videos.
Ignore the idiots. Thanks for the GREAT free educational content, Mr Hammack. Best of luck on the book, and hope to see you back when you have time!
Thank you so much! Amazing work / a spectacular contribution to all mankind.
Wow, thank you so much for this! I remember Professor Julius Sumner Miller referencing Michael Faraday quite a bit and now I understand why. Your commentary videos helped reinforce what was learned by the original lectures as well. I really can't thank you enough for this high quality content you produce. I'm glad Michael Stevens from Vsauce has referenced you.
I miss you, Mr. Bill Hammack!!
hi engineerguy, can you explain how chronograph works on measuring speed of bullets?
thank you...
At first I thought it was a load of spam, but it was actually the best youtube series I've ever seen.
Please spam me some more with this stuff (and ask youtube for a solution to this old problem).
Indeed a viewer explained how to do it: make first video public, and for videos that follow make the public after checking "do not notify subscribers." Useful info.
What happened to Engineer guy? :( No more uploads
***** Wtf. Don't joke around, man!
+8BitGamer4life naw. I wrote a book coming out in June. Am making a vid on 3D printer now. Book details at www.engineerguy.com/airship
engineerguy Awesome. I'll look into it.
YAY. Looking forward to the new video.
3 months for a 3d printing video, jesus christ. Channel is dead.
Awesome series! Think you can do a video on perpetual motion machines?
Engineer guy, I am looking forward for your new videos.I would like to see your videos about "COMPUTER PROCESSOR" detailed.Or more topics on your inspiring on your BOOK.I am so inspired by your videos.Please go forward.There are many people ready to support you.
Thanks Engineer Guy
Thank you for your efforts
Holy uploads, batman!
Hi! I totally lOVE your channel. Can you do a vid on how a spinning toy works? The kind that you have to push down. Keep up the amazing work!
Amazing video! Please keep making content
Love these videos
When you return, please do a video explaining how guitar pickups actually work. Maybe adress how different magnets affect an instrument's tone. Great channel!
The Passion I second that!
i like ur channel one of the best for all engineering students
take my subs 🖒
Engineer guy, we miss you!
here we are. 5th lecture in the series. yeah boiiiii
Video request: explain how centrifugal and axial compressors work
Would you please do a video on the breeder reactor?
pleaae return we love you !!
+engineerguy How does a laser engrave 3D images within a glass cube? How is the process made and does it got to do with the laser's intensity in engraving in different depths of the glass?
Will you come back by any chance??? We miss your videos!
do you think i have to be the smartest student and to gain a lot of important prizes at national sience contests to be able to go to a good university?
Filip Darius no, you just need to put in the work. Engineering isn't that hard in difficulty it's just time consuming
Woaah, I am your 500.000th subscriber :O
I'll take any spam from the engineerguy...Thanks for these free lectures!
when is your next video coming out
One wonder if He plans to ever show how one of those super complex DLP High Definition Chips work.. He make a reference on the cell phone & accelerometers...
This guy seriously needs, at least, a PBS show.
Don't worry Mark Hamill, we still love you!
RIP subscription feed
Sorry.
Don't be sorry my friend, I thought it was humorous seeing all the videos at once. It's not that big of a deal and it didn't cause any disruption worth complaining about.
Some kind of gratitude. I thought the series was very well done, very informative, and a reminder of what the wealth of our contemporary knowledge is founded upon.
So what if we were flooded with a multitude of videos at one time. First and foremost they were absolutely free. Additionally with all the videos appearing at once, one could watch them singularly or in series at their leisure.
my subscription feed is engineerguy
Nataly RAW wow alot of people are trying to hook up with you, lol
who
Nataly RAW your 500 subs
PLEASE MAKE SOME MORE AMAZING ENGINEERING VIDEOS I WANT TO KNOW EVERYTHING! I WANT TO KNOW HOW CAMERA LENSES ARE MADE! AND OTHER GREAT THINGS!
Hi next video on how gas station nozzle works.
so many video at once :O
im really going to miss this guy
+Aceman where am I going?
engineerguy pls new video !
FYI a couple times 'oxygen' is mispelled as 'oyxgen'
where are you again?
Holy fuck rip subbox
oh my god bill,for the love of god, come back!
+havenotchosenyet I will be back soon with long video on last British airship; companion book was published June 1st ... details at www.engineerguy.com/airship -- also video on 3D printer out soon
I love your videos bill, I've been waiting for a year now,re-watching all the other videos,but I'm glad you're coming back now!
I absolutely loved this series. The near poetry of Faraday's lecture, updated to modern specifications, is like scientific beauty.
However, I don't think this will be popular for a youtube-audience. Everyone is too accustomed to the single-topic, 10 minute edutainment video, that this may be too much for most of the audience.
Their loss.
come back plz
where are you bill i hope you're ok
We need new videos
Knowing, as I already did, that Faraday was very religious, that style of language had already jumped out at me. I can't help thinking that his final "be like the candle" bit was, intentionally or not, drawing on Christ's "You are the light of the world..."

is engineer man kill?
Man of engineerering is kill. rip engineer man 2k10-2k16
too much videos. great!!!
Sorry!
+engineerguy No. I mean it is great. A lot of excellent material to study besides from the great Michael Faraday, I science hero. You are an awesome scientist and communicator. Excuse my english skills.
its been 10 months. come on, guys.
Well ... I did finish a book in that time ... it will come out June 1st, 2017 (www.engineerguy.com/airship). The audio version is in preparation right now. It will eventually have a companion video. Also, we filmed on Thursday a video on a DLP 3D Printer. It has to go through post, but should be out soon.
Can you do the invention of toilet paper. I'm serious.
He realy looks like David Bowie...
dr. Cardholder no
I guess he's gone from RUclips? What a shame.
This guy looks very like Gene Haas
RIP
+Matt Blake what should RIP?
Mr Engineerguy, what happend to you? is this how you are?
It is not a good idea to use same graphic designs for so many of your video thumbnails.Too many identical thumbnails can confuse others.
DIOS MIO, TOO MANY LECTURES.
Sorry. As I've said elsewhere: if have an interlinked series and release them one at a time we get lots of complaints, if we release them all at once we get complaints!
No problem, anyone else and I would've unsubscribed, but you're part of a rare breed of RUclipsr that produces high quality original content.
Yeah but you will get far less views then if you released them at least day by day. Now most people will miss this videos or not care about the perceived spam in their subscription queue. Good way to lose subs too.
Don't worry about any complainers - just do your thing the way you see is best. After all, the content is absolutely fantastic!
mmKALLL
REEEEEEEE someone gives a valid complaint and you try to shoot it down and suckle on their mammary glands.
Why are people such snowflakes? Talk about first world problems... man...
Thank you, Bill. Looking forward to more videos! I'm going to check out your books.
why all this spaming? cant you just upload one video each week like everyone does instead 11 videos at once?
+IamIUareU sorry -- it is a single series that is linked together.
wuaaaaaaaaaah
You could release the intro video and have the rest de-listed with the intro linking to them. Only 1 video in the sub box but you still upload them all together.
I didn't do that because the unlisted videos would not be part of google/youtube search -- but I did learn that I could have made the videos that followed public but use the advanced options to not notify subscribers.
engineerguy will you be having any new videos soon? I just discovered your channel and your technique of explaining and demonstrating how things work and operate is phenomenal.
Is this channel dead now?
Nope. The engineerguy (me) is finishing a book and then back to making videos. You can learn more about the book by googling "engineerguytwit medium airship."
I can't tell you how glad I am to hear that.
Too much spam. unsubbed.
+Donn Aldak sorry
You split it up the best way possible, in my opinion. It wouldn't really work with all the videos stitched together into a long lecture with and without commentary.
The epitome of first world problems. "I saw too many of your video thumbnails at once"
+Outer Spaced yes, real problems
