Magnetism is a force which attracts oppositely magnetized objects to each other, and repels similarly magnetized objects from each other. Every electron is a tiny magnet, but in most materials, the spins of the electrons cancel each other out. In magnetic materials, the electrons can spin in the same direction and create a magnetic field.University of Birmingham: History of Magnetism
