Translation of the 3rd American edition, this book is aimed at students who have completed the General Physics course and aims to provide them with a comprehensive understanding of Electrodynamics, with an emphasis on clarifying this beautiful theory. Thanks to the author's talent for presenting arguments in an attractive, precise, and concise manner, as well as his ability to stimulate exploratory thinking and clearly highlight key ideas and finer points, the book is considered by many professors and students to be the internationally best textbook for the Electromagnetism course at the undergraduate level.

The book sequentially develops the mathematics required for formulating Electrodynamics and solving its problems, the basic static electric and magnetic phenomena in vacuum and matter, the time-varying phenomena of electromagnetism, the production and propagation of electromagnetic radiation, and the Special Theory of Relativity as the conceptual framework for a comprehensive understanding of Electrodynamics. The clear development of the theory is complemented by pedagogical treatment of selected examples and exercises. The reader is also encouraged and guided to further explore many specific topics with a wealth of references to appropriate and accessible literature.
