This text advances from the basic laws of electricity and magnetism
to classical electromagnetism in a quantum world. Suitable for
first-year graduate students in physics who have taken an
undergraduate course in electromagnetism, it focuses on core
concepts and related aspects of math and physics.

Progressing from the basic laws of electricity and magnetism and
their unification by Maxwell and Einstein, the treatment
culminates in a survey of the role of classical
electromagnetism in a quantum world. Each stage of the theory is
carefully developed in a clear and systematic approach that
integrates mathematics and physics so that readers are introduced
to the theory and learn the mathematical skills in context of real
physics applications. Topics include methods of solution in
electrostatics, Green's functions, electrostatics in matter,
magnetism and ferromagnetism, electromagnetic waves in matter,
special relativity, and the electrodynamics of moving bodies. Newly
revised by author Jerrold Franklin, the book includes the new
section Answers to Odd-Numbered Problems.
