Fundamentals of Electrodynamics Essential Overview of EM Theory

Abstract

Instead of the strict causal exposition, this is an original cross-section through EM theory, as its brief overview. All the equations are transparently presented in the pairs or tables, thus pointing up their symmetries and relations, with enough verbal announcement of their derivations. The characteristic problems are treated in the form: thesis – antithesis – synthesis. A few apparent antinomies of EM theory are thus presented and resolved, surpassing some, more or less obsolete, principal views. The text is of educational character, on the lower university level, also accessible to the wider public of non-expert readers.
