Developing electromagnetism historically makes many concepts easier to understand .
The breadth of the authors\' knowledge, together with their ability to summarize historical results in exceptionally clear terms, is wonderful.
This is the best treatment of the historical development of electricity, magnetism and Electrodynamics I have ever seen.
This book tells the story of the historical development of electrodynamics, at the same time as introducing students to Electrodynamics with vector calculus.
