Electromagnetism is one of the four fundamental forces in nature,
and underlies almost everything we experience in our daily lives,
whether we realise it or not. The complete theory was first written
down in the late 19th century, and remains an essential part of a
scientific education. The mathematics behind the theory, however,
can be intimidatingly complex. Furthermore, it is not always clear
to beginners why the theory is either useful or interesting, nor
how it relates to modern research in theoretical physics.The aim of
this book is to guide students towards a detailed understanding of
the full theory of electromagnetism, including its practical
applications. Later chapters introduce more modern formulations of
the theory than are found in traditional undergraduate courses,
thus bridging the gap between a first course in electromagnetism,
and the advanced concepts needed for further study in physics. The
final chapter reviews exciting current research stating that
possible theories of (quantum) gravity may be much more closely
related to electromagnetism than previously thought.Throughout the
book, an informal conversational style is used to demystify
intimidating concepts. Relevant mathematical ideas are introduced
in a self-contained manner, and exercises are provided with full
solutions to aid understanding. This book is essential reading for
anyone undertaking a physics degree, but will also be of interest
to engineers and chemists.
