Maxwell's Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism

Maxwell's Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism

Howard J. Fisher

Green Lion Press
2015
pokkari
Maxwell s Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism brought about what Einstein called the greatest change in the axiomatic basis of physics since Newton. But Maxwell s aim was never to construct an axiomatic theory. Instead, the Treatise presents an argument which, beginning with the most characteristic electrical and magnetic phenomena, and interpreting them as manifestations of continuous fields of electric and magnetic energy, culminates in Maxwell s theory of light as a wave motion within those fields. The argument of the Treatise is not straightforwardly demonstrative but is a dialectical one that can be challenging to discern among the many topics presented. This book undertakes to extract and expound the principal path of Maxwell s dialectical thinking."

Maxwell's Ghost

Maxwell's Ghost

Richard Frere

Origin
2019
pokkari
First published by Gollancz, then by Balnain, Maxwell's Ghost is a classic account of the life and achievements of Gavin Maxwell, whose work and beliefs have attained an almost mythical status. Maxwell's Ghost caused a stir when it was published in 1976 because it dealt candidly with its subject's homosexual friendships. This aspect of the man had not been common knowledge even among Maxwell's close friends, and certainly had not been touched upon in the 1969 film of Ring of Bright Water which Frere always called 'notably inane' or in Maxwell's memoir from the previous year, Raven Seek Thy Brother. Frere denied sensationalizing in his book. He said that Maxwell had asked him on his death-bed to write it, and 'demanded that I write a true and impartial account'. Maxwell's Ghost is a searing portrayal of Gavin Maxwell through the destruction of Camusfearna to his final acceptance of the inevitability of his death.

Peter Maxwell is the History teacher you wish you'd had. If you meet anyone (and you will) who says 'I hate History. It's boring, ' they weren't taught by Mad Max. Many of you will know him as the crime-solving sleuth (along with his police-person wife, Jacquie) in the Maxwell series by M.J. Trow (along with his non-policeperson wife, Carol, aka Maryanne Coleman - uncredited ) but what he is paid to do is teach History. And to that end has brought - and continues to bring - culture to thousands. In his 'blog' (Dinosaur Maxwell doesn't really know what that is) written in 2012, the year in which the world was supposed to end, but mysteriously didn't, you will find all sorts of fascinating factoids about the only important subject on the school curriculum. So, if you weren't lucky enough to be taught by Max, or you've forgotten all the History you ever knew, here is your chance to play catch-up. The 'blog' has been edited by Maxwell's friend, the crime writer M.J. Trow, who writes almost as though he knows what the Great Man was thinking. As Maxwell himself has been known to say - Spooky

Was it a god (Boltzmann's saying) that wrote those equations? Such was the enthusiasm for the Maxwell Equations. A review of Electromagnetic Field Theory (EMF), the repetitorium refers to the Hertz vector as the basis for discussions. The treatment of EMF assumes knowledge of coordinate systems along with scalar and vector fields. Electric and magnetic field strengths are computed from the Hertz vector for the coordinate system chosen. As an alternative the approach using Green's Theorem is discussed. A favorite topics of electrical engineering, antennas tend to attract great interest from students, which encourages one to look back at the elementary dipole as the basic element for antenna designs. From field strengths and their patterns to eigenfrequencies, the topics flow naturally from one section to the next. The less so common 4-dimensional spacetime formulation is also touched on as an addendum. One hundred fifty years on since Maxwell, the repetitorium is echoing the enthusiasm that was ringing among scientists.

Maxwell's Equations and the Principles of Electromagnetism

Maxwell's Equations and the Principles of Electromagnetism

Richard Fitzpatrick

Jones and Bartlett Publishers, Inc
2008
nidottu
Designed for upper division electromagnetism courses or as a reference for electrical engineers and scientists, this book introduces Maxwell's equations and electromagnetic waves as soon as possible (i.e., in the first third of the book), and then goes on to discuss electrostatics, magnetostatics, induction, etc., in the light of those equations. The book also provides a thorough discussion of vector field theory which emphasizes the rotational invariance of the dot and cross products, together with div, grad, and curl, and thus gives a clear physical motivation for the use of those constructs to describe electric and magnetic fields. Unlike many competing books, Maxwell's Equations amp the Principles of Electromagnetism covers topics such as advanced potentials, retarded fields, forces on dielectric liquids, antenna theory, and Faraday rotations.

A stunning adventure, simultaneously reminiscent of Neil Gaiman's SANDMAN and Bill Waterson's CALVIN AND HOBBES, MAXWELL'S DEMONS is a beautiful, heartbreaking book. PUBLISHER'S SYNOPSIS Maxwell Maas may be the greatest mind the world has ever known, but at 10 years old he has a lot to learn. Adventuring to distant worlds through his makeshift multiversal closet door, Max will encounter greatness and goodness on a cosmic scale. But will he realize that danger lurks on both sides of the door before it’s too late? PRAISE FOR MAXWELL'S DEMONS: "Incorporating the doomed wonder of Terry Gilliam's ‘Time Bandits’ and the mangled innocence of PT Anderson's 'Magnolia', MAXWELL’S DEMONS is a true lump-in-the-throat American epic." - Alex Paknadel (Arcadia, Turncoat, Dr. Who) "MAXWELL'S DEMONS never loses its footing or its confidence. It's an astonishing debut from the next writer and artist to watch. It feels like they're already at the top of their game, and it's only just beginning." - Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou (Strip Panel Naked, PanelxPanel) "Like comics need ONE MORE brilliant writer on the loose, but here's Deniz Camp" - Phil Hester (Green Arrow, Shipwrecked) "One of the most imaginative comics I've read in quite some time. Consummately well written, and beautifully rendered. Recommended." - Curt Pires (The Forevers, Tomorrows) “We might very well be looking at one of the most important and formative works of the current generation.” – Hagai Palevsky, Rambles Into The Void
