A Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism: Volume 2 by James Clerk Maxwell (Englis

Description: A Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism by James Clerk Maxwell This celebrated treatise details Maxwells theory of electromagnetism which underpins much modern physics. The theory elaborated here inspired both Lorentzs theories on the electron and Einsteins theory of relativity. This volume copntains Parts III and IV of the treatise dealing respectively with magnetism and finally with electromagnetism itself.

MAA Online, April 1999 Long Description Described by Einstein as "the most important event in physics since Newtons time," the discovery by James Clerk Maxwell that a vast array of phenomena could be united by four elegant formulas remains one of the greatest successes of modern physics. This book, based on the third edition originally published in 1891, presents the original work which underpins the electronic revolution in the 20th century and which inspired both Lorentzs theories on the electron and Einsteins theory of relativity. Volume I covers electrostatics and electrokinematics.
