From Electrostatics to Optics: A Concise Electrodynamics Course

by Günter Scharf

Book Overview

This textbook on classical electrodynamics differs from the existing literature by its rigorous derivation of Maxwell's theory from electrostatics and the Lorentz transformations of special relativity. It treats, among others, topics such as phenomenology, radiation, and modern optics in detail. It addresses students of theoretical physics.
