PhyzGuide: Electrostatic Charge
written by Dean Baird
This article contains some of the history of how electromagnetic theory was developed, along with some very general principles of what we know about static charges. This includes a brief description of types of charges and their properties, what classifies as a conductor or insulator, and how charge is measured.
