Description and Table of Contents

Description

Covers the theory of electromagnetic fields in matter, and the theory of macroscopic electric and magnetic properties of matter. There is a considerable amount of new material particularly on the theory of the magnetic properties of matter and the theory of optical phenomena with new chapters on spatial dispersion and non-linear optics.

Table of Contents

• Electrostatics of conductors
• Static magnetic field
• Superconductivity
• The propagation of electromagnetic waves
• Spatial dispersion
• Diffraction of X rays in crystals.
