 Need second edition! April 11, 2008

This textbook was interesting for me because some part of this book was used
as a basic analysis procedure for my undergraduate project " Partially
filled rectangular waveguide phase-shifter" without this book. It is impossible for me to design waveguide phase shifter. Compared to original topic from Nathan Marcuvitz textbook "Waveguide Handbook", It is excellent as a starting point.
 Best EE electromagnetics textbook I know February 4, 2007

This book is AWESOME.
It has all the right material in the right amount explained in the right way.
Of course supplement with other books because one book only gives one angle.
But if you study EM from the electrical engineer's perspective you must own this.
 Good for learning, less useful as a reference. May 18, 2006

Balanis's text is useful for someone first learning graduate level electromagnetics because it walks things through in great detail. However, the text is so detailed that it fails to cover more advanced topics and doesn't have the breadth of other EM texts.
What a Great Textbook November 14, 2005

I have many E&M texts primarily because there are so many nuances to learn and I find it important to have different points of view. However, the Balanis text does something the others doesnt. It covers a great deal of ground and puts the multitude of equations into a 'BOX' for easy reference. And all these equations are derived in a very straight forward fashion so a person can remember them and understand their basis. Most texts have the equations all over the place and when trying to solve problems you wonder where to look next. Not so with Balanis. In fact, I have definitely been able to solve E&M problems now after reading his book then I could do before it. If E&M is your field this text is a must.
Good theoretical treatment of electromagnetic theory August 25, 2004

In this book Balanis goes into great detail covering the solutions of the wave equation for several important boundary-valued EM problems in different coordinate systems. One of the other reviewers complains of the wordiness in this book and how Balanis' solves both the TE and TM problems in every case. I do not see the faults here as these are fundamental concepts that all graduate level electromagnetics students need to become familiar with. Wordiness, especially to someone unfamiliar with many of the more complex topics in electromagnetics, is only beneficial.
Later in the book Balanis includes very basic discussions on the Method of Moments, which are pretty much cut-and-paste from his antenna book. As there are other resources dealing specifically with the MoM, there is really no reason to include it here. Otherwise, a timeless reference that refer to over and over again.
