Description
Designed for upper division electromagnetism courses or as a reference for electrical engineers and scientists, this book introduces Maxwell’s equations and electromagnetic waves as soon as possible (i.e., in the first third of the book), and then goes on to discuss electrostatics, magnetostatics, induction, etc., in the light of those equations. The book also provides a thorough discussion of vector field theory which emphasizes the rotational invariance of the dot and cross products, together with div, grad, and curl, and thus gives a clear physical motivation for the use of those constructs to describe electric and magnetic fields. Unlike many competing books, Maxwell’s Equations & the Principles of Electromagnetism covers topics such as advanced potentials, retarded fields, forces on dielectric liquids, antenna theory, and Faraday rotations.

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:
⭐I bought this book to revisit- the topics after a 10 year break- I don’t like technical books that use “clearly”- in the middle of a proof to avoid what should be a few lines of extra text.I made it to page 58 – and noted along the way- over 12 instances- of “it clearly can be show”- “it is easily demonstrated” and “it is clear”- at very critical parts of proofs and examples-so I had to resort to other sources- to “clarify”-the math.I gave up on the book- after page 58 where the tex- said “we know from Gauass’ theorem- etc”-for critical derivation- However Gaauss’ theorem not covered until much later in the book.I found Schaum’s outlines- more instructive- and useful for a recap.
