Electromagnetic Theory

Abstract

IT is scarcely necessary to recommend to those interested in electromagnetic theory any book or article written by Dr. Oliver Heaviside. Since 1899 the scientific world has had in possession the first and second volumes of his “Electromagnetic Theory”; and these volumes hold a unique place in the literature of the subject. The first volume was reviewed in NATURE of 1894 (see vol. ii., p. 171), and the second in 1899 (see vol. lx., p. 589). Now, after fourteen years of waiting, the world is enriched with the third and preumably the last volume containing the authors views upon the later developments of this ever-growing science.

Electromagnetic Theory.

By O. Heaviside. Vol. iii. Pp. ix + 519. (London: The Electrician Printing and Publishing Co., Ltd., n.d.) Price 21s. net.
