Introduction to Electrodynamics is a textbook by physicist David J. Generally regarded as a standard undergraduate text on the subject, [1] it began as lecture notes that have been perfected over time. Griffiths said he was able to reduce the price of his textbook on quantum mechanics simply by changing the publisher, from Pearson to Cambridge University Press. See the ISBN in the box to the right. The front cover of fourth edition has a picture of the handwritten Poisson's equations for electricity and magnetism on a chalkboard. The first inner cover contains vector identities, vector derivatives in Cartesian , spherical , and cylindrical coordinates, and the fundamental theorems of vector calculus. The second inner cover contains the basic equations of electrodynamics, the accepted values of some fundamental constants, and the transformation equations for spherical and cylindrical coordinates.

This is the eBook of the printed book and may not include any media, website access codes, or print supplements that may come packaged with the bound book. This book is known for its clear, concise, and accessible coverage of standard topics in a logical and pedagogically sound order. The highly polished Fourth Edition features a clear, accessible treatment of the fundamentals of electromagnetic theory, providing a sound platform for the exploration of related applications ac circuits, antennas, transmission lines, plasmas, optics, etc. Its lean and focused approach employs numerous new examples and problems. He held post-doctoral positions at the University of Utah and the University of Massachusetts Amherst , and taught at Hampshire College, Mount Holyoke College, and Trinity College Hartford before joining the faculty at Reed College, where he has taught for over 30 years. Although his PhD was in elementary particle theory, his recent research is in electrodynamics and quantum mechanics. Account Options Ieiet. Introduction to Electrodynamics. David J.

Introduction to electrodynamics

This book is part of a series on Modern Physics :. This book is intended for advanced readers. This book is going to cover the topic of electrodynamics using vector calculus. We will provide a brief refresher to the topics of vector calculus, but this book does not intend to teach that topic to students who do not have any background in it. For more information about calculus and vector calculus topics, see Calculus and Linear Algebra.

S2CID Breaking with tradition, Griffiths did not give solutions to all the odd-numbered questions in the book. Use ILLiad for articles and chapter scans. Using this book "rejuvenated" his enthusiasm for teaching the subject. According to Robert W. For example, Green's functions are not anywhere mentioned. He argued that with this book, it is possible to skip the more mathematically involved sections to the more conceptually interesting topics, such as antennas. As of June , Inglefield has taught three semesters using this book.
