A review of the major achievements of Charles Augustin Coulomb, a prominent French scientist, the founder of the teachings of the strength of materials, friction and electrostatic, the author of many scientific papers, including fundamental in the field of electricity and inventor of the torsion-tactile balance. Data on parents Coulomb interesting facts of his life and work, including details of education, hobbies mathematics and scientific research, as well as military service in the Royal Engineers. Here are the facts of the housekeeping and social activities in the Coulomb end of XVIII - early XIX centuries, his participation in the creation of a unified system of measures and subsequent international recognition of his services. The designs of several instruments designed for electrostatic Coulomb studies considered prerequisites for the development of concepts of electric charges, which have become the basis for the withdrawal of Coulomb interaction and their units of measurement that are named after him.
