In this new edition of the standard undergraduate textbook on electricity and magnetism David
Griffiths provides expanded discussions on topics such as the nature of field lines the
crystal ambiguity eddy currents and the Thomson kink model. Ideal for junior and senior
undergraduate students from physics and electrical engineering the book now includes many new
examples and problems including numerical applications (in Mathematica) to reflect the
increasing importance of computational techniques in contemporary physics. Many figures have
been redrawn while updated references to recent research articles not only emphasize that new
discoveries are constantly made in this field but also help to expand readers' understanding
of the topic and of its importance in current physics research.
