Protheroe Raymond John. Essential Electromagnetism

Bookboon, 2013. — 165 p. — ISBN: 978-87-403-0403-9.Essential Electromagnetism provides a concise introduction to this fundamental topic. Starting with forces on charges, it takes a logical step-by-step progression through electrostatics and magnetostatics, both in empty space and in matter. The book goes into sufficient detail to explain the important concepts using clear explanations as well as numerous diagrams, examples and problems. The notorious “grad, div and curl” feature regularly in electromagnetism, and so a straightforward introduction to vectors and the vector calculus needed in this book is included in the Appendices.Electrostatics
