First edition, presentation-copy (inscribed to his friend Christian Molbech, one of the leading literary critics in Denmark at the time), on vellum-paper, of Oersted's main work in natural philosophy. Oersted is universally known for his discovery of Electro-Magnetism in 1820.

It was to further this purpose that Oersted sought in actual phenomena the electro-magnetic identity of which he had already convinced himself on metaphysical grounds"" (from PMM).
