Practically all of modern physics deals with fields--functions of
space (or spacetime) that give the value of a certain quantity,
such as the temperature, in terms of its location within a
prescribed volume. Electrodynamics is a comprehensive study of the
field produced by (and interacting with) charged particles, which
in practice means almost all matter.
Fulvio Melia's "Electrodynamics" offers a concise, compact, yet
complete treatment of this important branch of physics. Unlike most
of the standard texts, "Electrodynamics" neither assumes
familiarity with basic concepts nor ends before reaching advanced
theoretical principles. Instead this book takes a continuous
approach, leading the reader from fundamental physical principles
through to a relativistic Lagrangian formalism that overlaps with
the field theoretic techniques used in other branches of advanced
physics. Avoiding unnecessary technical details and calculations,
"Electrodynamics" will serve both as a useful supplemental text for
graduate and advanced undergraduate students and as a helpful
overview for physicists who specialize in other fields.
