Review of Principles of Electrodynamics
Principles of Electrodynamics by Melvin Schwartz is a very well written, very didactic book. The principles of Electrodynamics are clearly shown and the author explanations and demonstrations are rigurous but easy to understand. The book is a very good reference for certain topics of Electrodynamics not so well covered in other text books.

Exceptionally lucid.
This book is somewhat famous for its heuristic derivation of the full Maxwell's equations using Lorentz invariance, but every topic is covered in an exceptionally lucid manner, on a par with Feynman at his best.The book is also aneccessary antidote for the excessive detail and overgeneralization of Jackson.

Le meilleur livre sur les couscous boulettes
Bref, c'est tres bien sauf que beaucoup d'erreur se sont glisses dans le livre. C'est le probleme principal de ce livre est que l'audience est tres restreinte aux eleves de secondes. J'en appelle donc au serieux de l'auteur pour se relire quand meme.

Il est ecrit que Integrale infinie de la derivee est egale a la fonction identite, non c'est faux. la constante a disparu. Beaucoup d'autres erreurs similaires sont surprenantes.

A perfect introduction
This book is the best introduction to advanced electromagnetic theory I have ever encountered. The author does a masterly job at simplifying the mathematics without over-simplifying the physics. If you're looking to gaina deep understanding of electromagnetics and its relation to the theory ofrelativity, this book is for you!

Book Description
The presence of severe nephritis is a serious adverse prognostic feature of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The book summarizes the remarkable amount of information that has been generated in the quest for relief of patients, mostly young women, who have the unfortunate circumstances of having developed severe lupus nephritis. Lupus nephritis pulls together in one reference source the current knowledge regarding the inherited and immunologic abnormalities which have been identified in SLE with specific reference to the development of renal disease and the way in which these factors may impact upon the chronic care of these patients. This book is also an uptodate resource regarding the diagnosis and management of a broad range of abnormalities which are encountered in the population with lupus nephritis.The pathology, the clinical findings and therapeutic knowledge are reviewed, with chapters on the special problems associated with dialysis and transplantation therapy, and pregnancy in the patient with lupus nephritis.Physicians and scientists have been wrestling with the issue of the most effective treatment of this serious, potentially catasrophic, clinical problem for half a century. We must now look to the next century for the advances which can take us one step beyond our present therapeutic strategies. ... Read more
