Energy and power are fundamental concepts in electromagnetism and
circuit theory, as well as in optics, signal processing, power
engineering, electrical machines, and power electronics. However,
in crossing the disciplinary borders, we encounter understanding
difficulties due to (1) the many possible mathematical
representations of the same physical objects, and (2) the many
possible physical interpretations of the same mathematical
entities. The monograph proposes a quantum and a relativistic
approach to electromagnetic power theory that is based on recent
advances in physics and mathematics. The book takes a fresh look at
old debates related to the significance of the Poynting theorem and
the interpretation of reactive power. Reformulated in the
mathematical language of geometric algebra, the new expression of
electromagnetic power reflects the laws of conservation of
energy-momentum in fields and circuits. The monograph offers a
mathematically consistent and a physically coherent interpretation
of the power concept and of the mechanism of power transmission at
the subatomic (mesoscopic) level. The monograph proves
(paraphrasing Heaviside) that there is no finality in the
development of a vibrant discipline: power theory.
