Part A (Chapters 1-3) is an introduction to the physics of conducting solids, while Part B (Chapters 4-10) is an introduction to the theory of electromagnetic fields and waves. The book is intended to introduce the student to classical electrodynamics and, at the same time, to explain in simple terms the quantum theory of conducting substances ? in particular, the solid ones. Excessive mathematical proof is avoided as much as possible, in favor of pedagogical efficiency at an introductory level. The theory of vector fields is briefly discussed in a separate chapter, helping the student cope with the mathematical challenges of Maxwell's theory. The book serves as a primary source for a sophomore-level electromagnetics course in an electronics-oriented engineering program, but it can also be used as a secondary (tutorial) source for an intermediate-level course in electrodynamics for physicists and engineers. The content is based on the author?s lecture notes for his sophomore-level Physics course at the Hellenic Naval Academy. 606 $aElectrical engineering 606 $aElectrodynamics 606 $aCondensed matter 606 $aElectrical and Electronic Engineering 606 $aClassical Electrodynamics 606 $aCondensed Matter Physics 615 0$aElectrical engineering. 615 0$aElectrodynamics. 615 0$aCondensed matter. 615 14$aElectrical and Electronic Engineering. 615 24$aClassical Electrodynamics. 615 24$aCondensed Matter Physics. 676 $a530.141 676 $a530.141 700 $aPapachristou$b Costas J$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0843154 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910366587503321 996 $aIntroduction to Electromagnetic Theory and the Physics of Conducting Solids$92521738 997 $aUNINA
