Engineering Electromagnetics

Engineering Electromagnetics is a "classic" book that has been updated for electromagnetics in today's world. It is designed for introductory courses in electromagnetics or electromagnetic field theory at the junior-level, but can also be used as a professional reference. This widely respected book stresses fundamentals and problem solving and discusses the material in an understandable, readable way. Numerous illustrations and analogies are provided to the aid the reader in grasping difficult concepts. In addition, independent learning is facilitated by the presence of many examples and problems. * One of the most significant changes in the seventh edition is the re-positioning of the transmission lines chapter ahead of the plane waves chapter. The transmission lines chapter has also been re-written and expanded so that it can be used at any point in the course outline (including its use as the initial topic). |The two plane waves chapters have been modified to accommodate the new ordering. Although an instructor can still use them ahead of transmission lines if they wish|A new section on optical fibers in the waveguides chapter. |Many new end-of-chapter problems have been included. The drill problems have also been updated. In addition, new examples and applications have been added|The book has an expanded Web site which includes the solutions manual (for instructors only), downloadable JPEG files of the figures, as well as other helpful student and instructor resources|COSMOS--contains the entire book problem set, enhanced to include any referenced images or text, as well as the entire solution set for the book. In addition, this application will help you organize, distribute, and track problem sets from the text book as you assign them to your students|The book comes packaged with an extensive multi-media CD-ROM. Key components of the CD include: illustrations, animations, interactives, and quizzes. These resources will be of great use to both the student and the instructor|The book has been written with the goal of making it as easy as possible for the student to learn independently. This has been done by applying a carefully graduated scale of difficulty within each chapter and among the chapters themselves, by providing numerical examples, a large number of drill problems with answers, as well as end-of-chapter problems|The material is more than adequate for a one-semester course. Professors can omit portions of some of the chapters depending on the instructional level. Also, the more difficult material has been placed near the ends of chapters or at the end of the study of some definite phase of the subject to help bring along varying levels of students
