This is a re-issued and affordable printing of the widely used undergraduate electrodynamics textbook.
David J. Griffiths is Emeritus Professor of Physics from Reed College, Oregon, where he taught physics for over thirty years. He received his B.A. and Ph.D. from Harvard University, where he studied elementary particle theory.
'Griffiths's book has come to dominate the American market in
junior/senior E&M/electrodynamics textbooks to an extent that I
have never seen any other textbook dominate any other undergraduate
market - Griffiths's love of electrodynamics shines from every page
… Not merely clear and effective - it is joyful.' Dan Styer,
Oberlin College, Ohio
'… an ideal textbook for an intermediate Electrodynamics course for
undergraduate students of Physics.' David Miller, University of
Chicago
'… an excellent book, very well organized and readable. The
students loved it … It is a time-tested and highly optimized book.'
Steve Hagen, University of Florida
'Griffiths's classic undergraduate textbook on Electromagnetism has
dominated the teaching of the subject at the advanced undergraduate
level.' Shyam Erramilli, Boston University
'… an excellent book about this classical topic … written with
Griffiths's customary clarity and in his very engaging style, so
that, students tell me, it is a real pleasure to study from …' Eric
Laenen, University of Amsterdam
