Gontrand C. Electromagnetism: Links to Special Relativity

Wiley-ISTE, 2023. — 301 p. — ISBN 9781786307811.This book is primarily intended for undergraduate students of science. Moreover, this book, in its entirety, does not aim to play the role of a whole, but aims to give a certain perspective on this field, i.e. electromagnetism. Hence, it discusses special relativity. Indeed, the latter is intrinsic to electromagnetism; it will not introduce, for example, paradoxes that are not. Finally, this book discusses some limits of classical mechanics; an incision, invoking quantum mechanics, is introduced, alluding to problems encountered, in particular, when phenomena related to the propagation of electromagnetic waves occur, which even the greatest scientists of the last hundred years were not able to overcome.Magnetic Field.
