Review
The book appears to be very well written, and is excellently edited and produced. There is no doubt that it will be received as well as its previous edition has been. (Computing Reviews, July 1, 1008)

The definitive reference on electromagnetic field, updated and expanded
This definitive text and reference on electromagnetic fields has been updated and expanded to twice its original content. It incorporates the latest methods, theory, formulations, and applications that relate to today's technologies. With an emphasis on basic principles and a focus on electromagnetic formulation and analysis, Electromagnetic Fields, Second Edition includes:
Detailed discussions of electrostatic fields, potential theory, propagation in waveguides and unbounded space, scattering by obstacles, penetration through apertures, and field behavior at high and low frequencies
Many analytical developments suitable for exploitation by the numerical analyst, including the popular method of moments
Comprehensive discussion of singularities of sources and fields with delineations of field properties at edges and at sector and cone vertices
Extensive appendices that of themselves are worth the cost of the book
A large, useful, carefully compiled set of references
With descriptions of methods for solving problems and with many applications of theory to electromagnetic engineering, this is a valuable resource for students, professors, and practicing engineers. It is also a comprehensive textbook for graduate-level courses in various aspects of electromagnetic theory.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Fantastic !!!!!!!!!,
This review is from: Electromagnetic Fields (IEEE Press Series on Electromagnetic Wave Theory) (Hardcover)
I specialize in Electromagnetic Theory and have read many texts on this subject matter. There are many very good texts out there but nothing even compares with this one. I thought this would be a copy from various other excellent books by Collin, Jackson, Felsen, etc. but I was wrong. Prof. Bladel has written everything of his own originality. There is a spark of his originality in everything ranging from the quality of explanations, the choice of subject matter, the extreme mathematical depth involved and the choice of unsolved problems. In every way, this book alone can replace five to six other ordinary books.
In elecromagnetics, the biggest problem lies in understanding. The more you learn, the lesser you understand and the mathematics can be demoralizing. And also a vast portion of the literature is scattered throughout so many books. But Dr.Bladel has beautifully brought all that together under one roof and has presented the subject in a very theoretically fine manner doing complete justice to the mathematical intricacies. This book is a MUST if you want to call yourself a specialist in electromagnetics. It is a tome and the epitome of all good EM books !!!!!!!!! It is the "Stratton" of the 21st century !!!!!!!
4.0 out of 5 stars
Good but tough,
By Maximillian (Chicago) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Electromagnetic Fields (IEEE Press Series on Electromagnetic Wave Theory) (Hardcover)
Very good reference, but very mathematically advanced and demanding. Has tons of material beyond any intro books.
Some of the material is not easy to learn for the first time from this book. But if you have had a different intro to it then this book will provide another layer of deeper and advanced insight.
