Introduction to Electrodynamics (4th Edition)

About the Book This book is known for its clear, concise and accessible coverage of standard topics in a logical and pedagogically sound order. The Third Edition features a clear, accessible treatment of the fundamentals of electromagnetic theory, providing a sound platform for the exploration of related applications (ac circuits, antennas, transmission lines, plasmas, optics, etc.). Its lean and focused approach employs numerous examples and problems. More About Title Friendly, informal style. Clear focus on basic electromagnetic theory, providing a sound platform for future exploration of related applications (such as ac circuits, antennas, transmission lines, plasmas, optics, etc.). Large collection of problems: short, highly-focused problems are placed immediately following the relevant text section while longer/more broadly-based problems are at the end of the chapter. More extensive coverage of radiation theory than most texts at this level.NEW: Not a radical revision but rather a fine-tuning of the second edition, building on successful features of the first two editions.NEW: Every sentence has been reviewed for clarity and precision, and revised as needed, particularly regarding very difficult topics.NEW:Slightly expanded sections on energy, momentum and angular momentum.NEW:The Helmholtz theory is now covered in an appendix rather in the main body of the text.NEW:New and revised examples and problems.NEW:Updated references to accessible current literature for students wishing to explore recent developments in this field. Contents Vector Analysis. Electrostatics. Special Techniques. Electrostatic Fields in Matter. Magnetostatics. Magnetic Fields in Matter. Electrodynamics. Conservation Laws. Electromagnetic Waves. Potentials and Fields. Radiation. Electrodynamics and Relativity.
