Early introduction of Maxwell’s equations, together with demonstration that these equations predict the existence of electromagnetic waves.

Discussion of vector field theory which emphasizes the rotational invariance of the dot and cross products, together with div, grad, and curl, and thus gives a clear physical motivation for the use of these constructs to describe electric and magnetic fields. 

Thorough treatment of relativistic electromagnetism and also employs SI units. 

Inclusion of interesting topics, such as advanced potentials, retarded fields, forces on dielectric liquids, antenna theory, and Faraday rotations.

Features an Instructor’s Resource Disc for use as a textbook.
