What is Electrical Papers (vol. 2) about?

The most curious statement by Heaviside on Ampère is in his paper "The Mutual Action of a Pair of Rational Current-Elements *"* ([ *The Electrician* , Dec. 28, 1888 (written: 25 Nov. 1888), p. 230](https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=njp.32101050973542;view=1up;seq=256) = [*Electrical Papers* (vol. 2), p. 501](https://archive.org/stream/electricalpapers02heavuoft#page/500)); Heaviside ends the paper with: > It has been stated, on no less authority than that of the great Maxwell[[ *Treatise* §528](https://archive.org/stream/electricandmag02maxwrich#page/n193)], that Ampère's law of force between a pair of current-elements is the cardinal formula of electrodynamics. If so, should we not be always using it? Do we *ever* use it? Did Maxwell, in his treatise? Surely there is some mistake. I do not in the least mean to rob Ampère of the credit of being the father of electrodynamics; I would only transfer the name of cardinal formula to another due to him, expressing the mechanical force on an element of a conductor supporting current in any magnetic field; the vector product of current and induction. There is something real about it; it is not like his force between a pair of unclosed
