INTERNATIONAL ADAPTATION

Classical Electrodynamics

Classical Electrodynamics is a well-established and comprehensive text for undergraduate program in electricity and magnetism and graduate course in classical electromagnetism for students majoring in physics and related fields. This book is designed for electromagnetic theory course given to beginning graduate students. The goal of the text is threefold. First is to provide the basic subject matter holistically in physical and mathematics description mode; second is to develop and utilize the topics in mathematical physics and third goal is to present on interaction of relativistic charged particles with electromagnetic fields; thus making this book useful for theoretical and experimental physics.

This international adaptation of the book builds on the conceptual strength of the original edition, with content reorganized at places. Some typical problems are presented as Worked Problems within the chapter text to encourage problem-solving mindset. A few topics have been shortened, with mathematically rigorous derivations set for optional read. Additionally, References and Suggested Reading are now available at the end of each chapter for ease of use.

This book and series is authorized for sale in Europe, Middle East, Africa, Asia, Australia and New Zealand only and may not be exported. The content is comprehensively adapted to international requirements and materially different from similar products for other markets including the authorized U.S. counterpart of this title.

The third edition of the defining text for the graduate-level course in Electricity and Magnetism has finally arrived! It has been 37 years since the first edition and 24 since the second. The new edition addresses the changes in emphasis and applications that have occurred in the field, without any significant increase in length.
