Made me cry

[Jon Vegard · Rating 5 out of 5]

I've used this book when I took a course on electromagnetism (at University of Oslo) and I'm really satisfied with it. It's a pleasure to read about electromagnetisn with this book because it explain things in a way that makes you understand it rather fast. Woho.

The two things that could have been better is that Maxwell's equations on differential form and some numerical methods in EM should have been discussed.
