About this ebook

Electromagnetism stands as one of the most elegant and far-reaching branches of classical physics, unifying the phenomena of electric and magnetic fields into a single coherent framework. This volume by Alessio Mangoni offers a systematic and rigorous treatment of the subject, guiding the reader from the foundations of electric currents and Ohm's law through the properties of magnetic fields and the forces they exert on conductors and moving charges. The discussion advances naturally to electromagnetic induction, covering the Faraday–Neumann–Lenz law, self-induction, mutual induction, and the ideal transformer, before culminating in a thorough presentation of Maxwell's equations in both integral and differential form, electromagnetic waves in vacuum, the Poynting vector, and the polarization of light. A dedicated chapter on electric circuits completes the treatment, examining resistors, capacitors, and inductors, Kirchhoff's laws, DC circuit analysis, transient behavior in RC, RL, and RLC circuits, and electrical filters. Written with clarity and formal precision, the book is an ideal reference for students seeking a solid and well-organized foundation in classical electromagnetism.
