“This book presents the theory of electromagnetism and is aimed at an advanced undergraduate or early graduate student … . Each chapter includes five solved problems … which nicely complement the chapter’s content, and 10 unsolved problems that help fill in more calculational details and provide some practice with the theoretical formalism.” (Peter Bernard Weichman, Mathematical Reviews, August, 2017)
