Abstract

This paper describes the greatest science theory which connected different electrical and magnetic effects in one harmonious Maxwell´s theory. The amazing result of this theory was the proof of electromagnetic waves existence as the basis of all electricity and optics phenomena. Crucial Hertz´s and Lebedev´s experiments confirmed this discovery. A short overview of radio communication discovery is also given. All this made the Maxwell´s electrodynamics as one of the fundamental laws of nature.
