Francis Bitter and John F. Waymouth discuss the electric field in space around a charge as a mathematical aid and as a physical entity. Experiments demonstrate vector addition of fields, shielding effects of closed metallic surfaces and the force driving an electric current in straight and curved conductors. Fields in terms of radiation are discussed briefly.
