Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Electromagnetism is one of the four fundamental interactions of nature. The other three are the strong interaction, the weak interaction and gravitation. Electromagnetism is the force that causes the interaction between electrically charged particles; the areas in which this happens are called electromagnetic fields. Electromagnetism manifests as both electric fields and magnetic fields. Electrostatics is the branch of science that deals with the phenomena arising from stationary or slow-moving electric charges. Magnetostatics is the study of static magnetic fields. In electrostatics, the charges are stationary, whereas here, the currents are steady or dc (direct current). This book studies electromagnetism including electric field, electric flux, polarization density, magnetic field, and magnetization.
