Purchase options and add-ons

Based on familiar circuit theory and basic physics, this book serves as an invaluable reference for both analog and digital engineers alike. For those who work with analog RF, this book is a must-have resource. With computers and networking equipment of the 21st century running at such high frequencies, it is now crucial for digital designers to understand electromagnetic fields, radiation and transmission lines. This knowledge is necessary for maintaining signal integrity and achieving EMC compliance. Since many digital designers are lacking in analog design skills, let alone electromagnetics, an easy-to-read but informative book on electromagnetic topics should be considered a welcome addition to their professional libraries.
  • Covers topics using conceptual explanations and over 150 lucid figures, in place of complex mathematics
  • Demystifies antennas, waveguides, and transmission line phenomena
  • Provides the foundation necessary to thoroughly understand signal integrity issues associated with high-speed digital design

Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2015
As an electronics and short range wireless engineer, I was looking for a book that helped bridge the gap between theory and real-world. This is one of the finest books that has been written to date meeting that objective. It is intuitive, easy to read, has plenty of real-world examples and is something you will reference over and over. The reader will come away with a much clearer picture of the world of electromagnetics, but more importantly, the book helps the reader develop an intuitive sense of how electromagnetics affects so many aspects of R&D. Have your highlighter handy - you will want to mark this book up as you read it.

If you are not an expert in Electromagnetics and would like to get a broad perspective of the field without going into complex mathematics, this book is the right choice for you. All the explanation is clear and convincing. You will not feel like you are reading a book, but in stead listening to an expert in RF engineer speaking to you. In addition, you will find the references given in separate sub-topics very handy. They leads you directly to the right books when further knowledge in a specific area is required.

(Why 4 stars? Some topics can be given and discussed in more detail.)

I'd characterize this book as qualitative rather than quantitative. It provides good verbal descriptions for a wide variety of concepts related to electromagnetics. For me, it tied together a lot of lose ends. This book works pretty well for someone who has a moderate grasp of the electromagnetic fundamentals and wants to go to the next level of understanding without becoming mired in equations -- maybe a sort of heavy duty tutorial for students, recent graduates, and just-plain-curious technically oriented people. This is one of those must-read books, but I would not recommend it to someone without knowldge of college-level physics and differential calculus.

This book isn't a mathematical introduction but it excels at cultivating intuition. I have a background in physics so many of the concepts were not new to me, yet I learned dramatically more than I thought I would. I suspect anyone who is not already an experienced EM engineer could benefit from reading it. I wish I had this book when I was in college!

Electromagnetics Explained is very well written and I'm really am enjoying it. I was educated in physics and have worked for many years as an development/process engineer in the manufacturing area (layed-off, of course!)and have lost touch with mathematical physics. Since I have always thought that my conceptual understanding of electromagnetism could be improved, I was happy to find this book. Because of the first sentence in the preface I knew that I had found the right book! The fundamental concepts are presented in a clear fashion and have given me useful insight.

I found the book to be quite good at explaining Electromagnetics.
Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2007
The author has succeeded in writing an easy to read book. I read through it in two days. But is it useful and worthy keeping? The author covers a lot of ground, even included a cursory introduction to special relativity and quantum electrodynamics which have no relevance to the rest of the book. It gives a relatively painless introduction to various concepts in electromagnetism. But the superficiality makes it a book for the popular audience rather than electrical engineers. The author does have the good sense to include a set of good references. So read the book once, and study the reference books. The book is not worthy keeping. I've sold mine.

This book explains the electromagnetics in a qualitative way. I recommend to read it before reading a classical electromagnetics book like Balanis or Sadiku. It really gives you a good intuitive thinking for understanding the equations.

5.0 out of 5 stars Insightful and useful reference
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 15, 2011
Often engineering books can be a little blinkered, this is not necessarily a bad thing but from time to time principles cross paths and it would be nice to step back and take a wider view. This book is very good in that it not only looks directly at the issues at hand but also looks at some of the fundamental principles behind the topic. You might not think that understanding the Coriolis force to be relevant to electromagnetism, but read on suddenly a bigger picture develops before your eyes.

The book explores the macrocosm and it relevance to the main topic and is all the more interesting and useful for it. I recommend this to any student of electrodynamics as a very useful reference.
