From Electrostatics to Optics: A Concise Electrodynamics Course - Paperback

by Günter Scharf (Author)

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.
