Electricity and magnetism

From Wikibooks, open books for an open world

This short treatise explains to beginners the fundamental laws of electromagnetism: Coulomb's law and Maxwell's equations. The only prerequisite is to know a little differential and integral calculus. If you already know that , you have a sufficient mathematical level to understand all the calculations of this book, including the proof that E = m c².
