This document is a textbook on classical electricity and magnetism by Wolfgang K. H. Panofsky, published in 1950. It presents a comprehensive treatment of the subject, starting with the derivation of Maxwell's equations from the fundamental experimental laws of Coulomb, Ampere, and Faraday. The text discusses the electrostatic field, field singularities, boundary conditions, and the relation between microscopic and macroscopic fields. It also covers the solution of potential problems, energy relations, forces in the electrostatic field, stationary currents, types of currents, magnetic interactions, magnetic materials, and magnetic boundary value problems. The text includes detailed derivations of Maxwell's equations, energy relations in electromagnetic fields, and forces on current systems. It also discusses the field formulation of forces and momenta in electromagnetic fields, radiation pressure, electromagnetic wave equations, and solutions to these equations. The text also covers the Wiedemann-Lienard potentials, the Hertz vector method, and the convection potential. The book provides a thorough treatment of the subject, including the derivation of the multipole potentials, the interaction energy between dipoles, and the boundary conditions and relation of microscopic to macroscopic fields. The text is written in the rationalized MKS system of units and includes detailed derivations and explanations of the subject matter. The book is a valuable resource for students and researchers in the field of classical electricity and magnetism.This document is a textbook on classical electricity and magnetism by Wolfgang K. H.
