An Introduction to Electrodynamics provides an excellent foundation
for those undertaking a course on electrodynamics, providing an
in-depth yet accessible treatment of topics covered in most
undergraduate courses, but goes one step further to introduce
advanced topics in applied physics, such as fusions plasmas,
stellar magnetism and planetary dynamos. Some of the central ideas
behind electromagnetic waves, such as three-dimensional wave
propagation and retarded potentials, are first explored in the
introductory background chapters and explained in the much simpler
context of acoustic waves. The inclusion of two chapters on
magnetohydrodynamics provides the opportunity to illustrate the
basic theory of electromagnetism with a wide variety of physical
applications of current interest. Davidson places great emphasis on
the pedagogical development of ideas throughout the text, and
includes many detailed illustrations and well-chosen exercises to
complement the material and encourage student development.
