Excellent introduction. - Goodreads Griffiths is a great textbook writer. - Goodreads This book is the paragon of fine textbook writing. - Goodreads This is one of my all-time favorite reference books. - Goodreads Review: Introduction to ElectrodynamicsUser Review - Radoslaw - GoodreadsExcellent introduction. The relevant math (some very basic multivariable calculus) is introduced first. The explanations are good, and the maths are not difficult, which make it a good way to learn the subject, before getting to something like Jackson to master it.

Good for reading many times and to study and apply the subject matter. *Primarily the bed-rock Physics courses, Classical Mechanics, Quantum Mechanics & Materials Science. 15yrs later, i'm planning to read Griffiths.
