Contents:
Introduction: the three divisions of electromagnetism; Part I. Electrostatics and Current Electricity: 1. Physical principles; 2. The electrostatic field of force; 3. Conductors and condensers; 4. Systems of conductors; 5. Dielectrics and inductive capacity; 6. The state of the medium in the electrostatic field; 7. General analytical theorems; 8. Methods for the solution of special problems; 9. Steady currents in linear conductors; 10. Steady currents in continuous media; Part II. Magnetism: 11. Permanent magnetism; 12. Induced magnetism; Part III. Electromagnetism: 13. The magnetic field produced by electric currents; 14. Induction of currents in linear circuits; 15. Induction of currents in continuous media; 16 Dynamical theory of currents; 17. Displacement currents and electromagnetic waves; 18. The electromagnetic theory of light; 19. The motion of electrons; 20. The theory of relativity; 21. The electrical structure of matter; Index.
Summary: Sir James Jeans' well-known treatise covers the topics in electromagnetic theory required by every non-specialist physicist. It provides the relevant mathematical analysis; it is therefore useful to those whose mathematical knowledge is limited, as well as to the more advanced physicists, engineers and applied mathematicians. A large number of examples are given
