Sinopsis

An Introduction to Classical Electrodynamics covers the topics of Electricity, Magnetism, and Optics at the upper-level undergraduate level in physics or electrical engineering.  This book tells the story of the historical development of electrodynamics, at the same time as introducing students to electrodynamics with vector calculus.

This is the best treatment of the historical development of electricity, magnetism and electrodynamics I have ever seen. The breadth of the authors’ knowledge, together with their ability to summarize historical results in exceptionally clear terms, is wonderful. Developing electromagnetism historically makes many concepts easier to understand .

Acerca de los autores

Jonathan W. Keohane (pronounced KO-han) teaches at Hampden-Sydney College. He holds a Ph.D. in astrophysics from the University of Minnesota and a B.S. in physics from Yale University, and has published extensively on the astrophysics of supernova remnants. Jonathan has more than 25 years of experience teaching physics, astronomy, and, most recently, "Western Culture," an interdisciplinary course for first year undergraduate students. An Introduction to Classical Electrodynamics is Jonathan's first textbook. Jonathan lives with his wife, Laura, in Farmville Virginia; they have three grown children.

Joseph P. Foy teaches at Barrett, the honors college of Arizona State University. He holds a Ph.D. in astrophysics, also from ASU, and a B.S. in physics from the University of Iowa, and has published extensively on the astrophysics of supernova remnants. Joe has more than 25 years of experience teaching physics, astronomy, and, most recently, "The Human Event," which is an interdisciplinary course for first year honors students. An Introduction to Classical Electrodynamics is Joe's first textbook. Joe lives with his wife, Emalee, in Tempe Arizona.
