Engineering Electromagnetics

Reader Reviews
I think this book does a better job of providing a handle on the vector nature of E&M than virtually any other textbook out there. Very often you'll see other authors reduce integrations to scalar equations without showing you the steps involved (dot or cross products), but Inan uses vectors consistently. You will be amazed at how this alone improves your grasp of the material. The rigor and completeness of the coverage are far better than any of the other engineering E&M books, and his willingness to plug in numbers to make some practical calculations is very welcome in comparison with pure physics treatments like Jackson's. The guy above says that waveguides are not covered in detail in this book, and this is true, but the second book in the series (Electromagnetic Waves) covers waveguides and reflection, refraction, transmission, etc. in great detail.
