I remember this from some circuit theory texts - sorry, no longer in my
personal library. The idea is that the conventional current runs from
regions of high potential to low potential, giving delta V = -Ri. The
form of Ohm's law relating current density and field does not need the
negative sign because the conventional current density responds directly
to the field.
