About this Item
One of the best book ever written on electricity and magnetism visualizations so properties of materials may be exploited for practical purposes. If you intend on being an actual Electrical Engineer, this book should be on your shelf, even if it is old. Basic EM laws haven't changed. The book was intended to provide content for a 1st course at the university level for engineering and science students. Prerequisites are algebra, trigonometry, analytical geometry, and elementary mechanics. 9 chapters, 4 appendixes, ToC plus index, and over 250 problems, with answers given to most problems. xvi + 816pps. James Milton Ham, OC OOnt (1920-1997) was a Canadian engineer, university administrator and President of the University of Toronto.
