An Introduction to Electromagnetism is an accessible undergraduate text on the subject, incorporating elements of electromagnetism and electrodynamics while thoroughly delving into foundational concepts. The book opens with an introductory section on exterior calculus and its applications in electromagnetism, which introduces increasingly popular mathematical tools at the heart of most vector calculus theorems. The book further makes the case that electromagnetism can be more naturally expressed in terms of differential forms, and overall aims to make this novel geometric approach more accessible to a wider audience. An Introduction to Electromagnetism dives into fundamental topics, based on the authors' own teaching experience in dedicated courses for undergraduate Physics students. The book has a unique, specialized focus on topics such as the incompleteness of Maxwell's equations; a dissection of Purcell's thought experiment on the magnetic force from a current-carrying wire onto a free charge; and an interpretation of dipole and multipole moments and how their properties contribute to electric and magnetic phenomena. This helpful first edition delivers detailed explanations, illustrative examples, and beneficial in-text exercises and solutions to discuss the role and importance of electromagnetism, and is ideal for courses in physics, physical sciences, and related fields.
