5.0 out of 5 stars
A great master teaches electrodynamics,
This review is from: Electrodynamics: Volume 1 of Pauli Lectures on Physics (Dover Books on Physics) (Paperback)
Pauli, who was rated by Born to be as good as Einstein, taught theoretical physics for many years at Technische Hochschule at Zurich. This book is labored on notes taken by students from his lectures on Electrodynamics. This is the book I consult when I am not happy with the explanations in the usual books. If it happens that Pauli touches the subject, I always get what I looked for: conceptual clarity and very good algorithms. Yes, because Pauli, one of the most profound physicists ever, believed that a physicist must calculate. He even "practiced" in his spare time! I especially like, in this book, the derivation of the laws for RLC circuits, rigorously in the field theory way, and absolutely clear and elegant. This is not an introduction to electricity. It is a rather sophisticated introduction to that part of theoretical physics called electrodynamics. In this role, it is certainly among the very best.

Pauli Lectures,
This review is from: Electrodynamics: Volume 1 of Pauli Lectures on Physics (Dover Books on Physics) (Paperback)
If you take a look, then you will see that"Pauli Lectures on Physics" should remind you something. Landau&Lifshits! Exactly! So my opinion is that the Landau books are written in a tight relationship with Pauli lectures. But everybody is aware of that obvious things for Landau are not so clear for a graduate student. So Pauli lectures fill "Landau' "obviously" " gaps Perfectly! My advice to graduate students who are struggling with Landau - open Pauli lectures and very soon it will be obvious for you ;)
