"A modern approach to classical electromagnetism Electromagnetism is onethe pillars of modern physics. Robert Wald provides graduate students with aclear, concise, and mathematically precise introduction to the subject, covering all the core topics while bringing the teaching of electromagnetismup to date with our modern understanding of the subject. Electromagnetism isusually taught in a quasi-historical fashion, starting from concepts formulated in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, but this tends to promote outdated and unhealthy ways of thinking about the theory. Waldbegins with Maxwell's equations-the foundation of electromagnetism-togetherwith the formulas for the energy density, momentum density, and stresstensor of the electromagnetic field. He then proceeds through all the majortopics in classical electromagnetism, such as electrostatics, dielectrics,magnetostatics, electrodynamics and radiation, diffraction, and specialrelativity. The last two chapters discuss electromagnetism as a gauge theoryand the notion of a point charge-topics not normally treated inelectromagnetism texts.Completely rethinks how to teach electromagnetism tofirst-year graduate studentsPresents electromagnetism from a modern,mathematically precise perspective, formulating key conceptual ideas andresults clearly and conciselyWritten by a world-class physicist, proven inthe classroomCovers all the subjects found in standard electromagnetismtextbooks as well as additional topics such as the derivation of the initialvalue formulation for Maxwell's equationsAlso ideal as a supplementary textor for self-study"--

"This is a concise, beginning graduate-level textbook on classical electromagnetism, the branch of physics that describes the interaction of electric currents or fields and magnetic fields. Electromagnetism (also called electrodynamics) is one of the pillars of modern physics and, assuch, of the modern physics curriculum, with courses on electromagnetismrequired at the undergraduate and graduate levels. These courses traditionally proceed in a quasi-historical fashion, starting from equations and laws that were first formulated in the eighteenth and nineteenthcenturies and still form the foundations of our understanding ofelectromagnetism. However, as Robert Wald argues, teaching in this way canbe imprecise and tends to promote outdated ways of thinking about thesubject. This book rethinks how electromagnetism is presented at thegraduate level, offering a corrective that aims to bring teaching up to datewith our more modern understanding of the topic. The book begins bydebunking four common misconceptions, or "myths," that can hinder a deepconceptual understanding of electromagnetism. Wald then proceeds through themajor topics first-year grad courses (and textbooks) in electromagnetismtypically cover, including electrostatics, dielectrics, magnetostatics,electrodynamics, geometric optics, special relativity, gauge theory, andpoint charge. Wald's aim throughout is to explain to students how to thinkabout electromagnetism from a modern and mathematically precise perspective,formulating all the key conceptual ideas and results in the field clearlyand concisely, while forgoing extensive collections of examples and applications. The book could be used as the basis for or as a supplement toa course, or for self-study by students seeking a deeper understanding than traditional courses and books offer"--
