Product Description
Gauss's law for electric fields, Gauss's law for magnetic fields, Faraday's law, and the Ampere-Maxwell law are four of the most influential equations in science. In this guide for students, each equation is the subject of an entire chapter, with detailed, plain-language explanations of the physical meaning of each symbol in the equation, for both the integral and differential forms. The final chapter shows how Maxwell's equations may be combined to produce the wave equation, the basis for the electromagnetic theory of light. This book is a wonderful resource for undergraduate and graduate courses in electromagnetism and electromagnetics. A website hosted by the author at www.cambridge.org/9780521701471 contains interactive solutions to every problem in the text as well as audio podcasts to walk students through each chapter.

5 out of 5 stars Student's Guide to Maxwell's Equations   November 17, 2009
Gary R. Bosworth (Malibu, CA USA)
Quick delivery. Quality product. Interesting source of technical knowledge. Easy to understand. No fluff and no non-sense. Lots of extras - download source of audio, test question answers, and diagrams. Well worth the money. I am a very satisfied customer.

Very easy to read and follow, a must have for fundamental electromagnetic work and intro to electric circuit analysis.

I was excited when I got my hands on this, but it just reviews Maxwell's Equations with detailed examples. You would be better off buying Griffiths, Wangsness, or Corson and Lorrain, which are complete EM texts beginning the Coulomb's Law to relativistic electrodynamics, and covers Maxwell's theory more than adequately. One good thing is that it is a relatively smaller paperback, which can be stuffed into a bag and read on the run.

Finally, a physics book that does not apologize for having math in it. In a simple manner, the author takes each equation apart and explains every squiggle, dot, and delta and how they relate to each other. With only a high school diploma I was able to understand what was happening in the application of these basic equations. Thank you for taking the time to explain them rather than telling me that I am just too dumb to understand.


5 out of 5 stars Great review of E&M   August 24, 2009
Steven Maccoun (Colorado)
This book explains Maxwell's equations very concisely. I used this book just to review some of my junior level E&M and found it to be extremely helpful. May serve well as intro the class as well.
