Beskrivning

The study of classical electromagnetic fields is an adventure. The theory is complete mathematically and we are able to present it as an example of classical Newtonian experimental and mathematical philosophy. This textbook presents the theory of classical fields as a mathematical structure based solidly on laboratory experiments.

Recensioner i media

"This is a clearly written book covering wide domains of essential phenomena in electromagnetism offering detailed explanations of theoretical derivations and possible practical applications, which makes it a useful literature not only for graduate students but also for professional researchers in the field." (Vladimir Cadez, zbMATH 1334.78003, 2016) "This book is a worthy attempt at explaining electromagnetism. It is recommended to students studying classical electrodynamics. A physicist who is a specialist in field theory will enjoy the discussions on subtle points of Maxwell-Lorentz electrodynamics. The book will certainly attract the interest of historians of physics." (Yurij H. Yaremko, Mathematical Reviews, January, 2014)
