This second paper certainly was a first step in a comprehensive theory which Ohm was able to give in his famous book published in the following year called "Die Galvanische Kette, mathematisch bearbeitet" (1827) which means "The Galvanic Chain, Mathematically worked" and contained what is now know as the 'Ohm Laws' and they are for voltage: E=IxR, current: I=E/R, resistance: R=E/I, power: P=E 2/R, also P=I2*R or P=E*I At the time Ohm started to write his papers (8) he was on a one year sabbatical doing his research at the Jesuit Gymnasium of Cologne. These papers continue Ohm's deduction of results from experimental evidence and, particularly in the second paper, he was able to propose laws which went a long way to explaining results of others working on galvanic electricity. In two important papers in 1826, Ohm gave a mathematical description of conduction in circuits modeled of Fourier's study of heat conduction. Ohm continued working for several other Universities throughout Bavaria and published several papers. Ohm was sent to Switzerland where, in September 1806, took up a post as a mathematics teacher in a school in Gottstadt bei Nydau. Ohm's father, angry that his son was wasting the educational opportunity that he himself had never been fortunate enough to experience, demanded that Ohm leave the university after three semesters. Rather than concentrate on his studies, he spent much time dancing, ice skating and playing billiards.
In 1805 Ohm entered the University of Erlangen but he became rather carried away with student life. It is worth stressing again the remarkable achievement of Johann Wolfgang Ohm, an entirely self-taught man, to have been able to give his sons such a fine mathematical and scientific education.
This contrasted strongly with the inspired instruction that both Georg Simon and Martin received from their farther who brought them to a level in mathematics which led the professor at the University of Erlangen, Karl Christian von Langsdorf, to compare them to the Bernoulli Family. In fact, his formal part of his schooling was uninspired stressing learning by rote and interpreting texts. Georg Simon entered Erlangen Gymnasium at the age of eleven but there he received little by the way of scientific training. This was in stark contrast to their school education. While children, Georg and Martin were taught by their father who brought them to a high standard in mathematics, physics, chemistry and philosophy. Of the seven children born to Johann and Maria Ohm only three survived, Georg, his brother Marin who went on to become a well-known mathematician, and his sister Elizabeth Barbara.
Had Ohm's brothers and sisters all survived he would have been one of a large family but, as was common in those times, several of the children died in their childhood. Although his parents had not been formally educated, Ohm's father was a rather remarkable man who had educated himself to a high level and was able to give his sons and excellent education through his own teachings. His father, Johann Wolfgang Ohm, was a locksmith while his mother, Maria Elizabeth Beck, was the daughter of a tailor. Georg Simon Ohm was born on Main the city of Erlangen in Bavaria, which is now Germany.
