Learning Electrodynamics doesn't have to be boring

What if there was a way to learn Electrodynamics without all the usual fluff? What if there were a book that allowed you to see the whole picture and not just tiny parts of it?

Thoughts like this are the reason that No-Nonsense Electrodynamics now exists.

What will you learn from this book?

  • Get to know all fundamental electrodynamical concepts -Grasp why we can describe electromagnetism using the electric and magnetic field, the electromagnetic field tensor and the electromagnetic potential and how these concepts are connected.
  • Learn to describe Electrodynamics mathematically - Understand the meaning and origin of the most important equations: Maxwell's equations & the Lorentz force law.
  • Master the most important electrodynamical systems - read step-by-step calculations and understand the general algorithm we use to describe them.
  • Get an understanding you can be proud of - Learn why Special Relativity owes its origins to Electrodynamics and how we can understand it as a gauge theory.

No-Nonsense Electrodynamics is the most student-friendly book on Electrodynamics ever written.

Here's why.

  • First of all, it's nothing like a formal university lecture. Instead, it's like a casual conservation with a more experienced student. This also means that nothing is assumed to be "obvious" or "easy to see".
  • Each chapter, each section, and each page focusses solely on the goal to help you understand. Nothing is introduced without a thorough motivation and it is always clear where each formula comes from.
  • The book contains no fluff since unnecessary content quickly leads to confusion. Instead, it ruthlessly focusses on the fundamentals and makes sure you'll understand them in detail.

The primary focus on the readers' needs is also visible in dozens of small features that you won't find in any other textbook

  • In total, the book contains more than 100 illustrations that help you understand the most important concepts visually.
  • In each chapter, you'll find fully annotated equations and calculations are done carefully step-by-step. This makes it much easier to understand what's going on.
  • Whenever a concept is used which was already introduced previously, there is a short sidenote that reminds you where it was first introduced and often recites the main points.
  • In addition, there are summaries at the beginning of each chapter that make sure you won't get lost.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

學習電動力學不必無聊

如果有一種方法可以在沒有所有通常繁瑣內容的情況下學習電動力學呢?如果有一本書能讓你看到整體而不僅僅是其中的小部分呢?

這樣的想法促成了《無廢話電動力學》的誕生。

你將從這本書中學到什麼?


  • 了解所有基本的電動力學概念 - 理解為什麼我們可以用電場和磁場、電磁場張量以及電磁勢來描述電磁學,以及這些概念之間的聯繫。

  • 學會用數學描述電動力學 - 理解最重要的方程式的意義和來源:麥克斯韋方程組(Maxwell's equations)和洛倫茲力法則(Lorentz force law)。

  • 掌握最重要的電動力學系統 - 逐步閱讀計算過程,理解我們用來描述它們的一般算法。

  • 獲得值得驕傲的理解 - 學習為什麼狹義相對論(Special Relativity)的起源與電動力學有關,以及我們如何將其理解為一種規範理論(gauge theory)。

《無廢話電動力學》是有史以來最適合學生的電動力學書籍。

這就是原因。


  • 首先,它與正式的大学讲座完全不同。相反,它更像是與一位經驗豐富的學生的輕鬆對話。這也意味著沒有任何內容被假設為“顯而易見”或“容易理解”。

  • 每一章、每一節和每一頁都專注於幫助你理解的目標。沒有任何內容是在沒有充分動機的情況下引入的,並且每個公式的來源始終清晰可見。

  • 這本書不包含任何繁瑣內容,因為不必要的內容會迅速導致混淆。相反,它毫不留情地專注於基本原理,並確保你能詳細理解它們。

對讀者需求的主要關注也體現在數十個小特徵上,這些特徵在其他教科書中找不到。


  • 總的來說,這本書包含超過100幅插圖,幫助你以視覺方式理解最重要的概念。

  • 在每一章中,你會發現完整註解的方程式,計算過程也會仔細逐步進行。這使得理解發生了什麼變得容易得多。

  • 每當使用已經介紹過的概念時,會有一個簡短的附註提醒你最初在哪裡介紹過,並經常重述主要要點。

  • 此外,每一章的開頭都有摘要,確保你不會迷失方向。
