Description
This treatise by James Clerk Maxwell explores and explains the fundamental principles and laws that are the basis of elementary physics.
Published posthumously in 1888, this work brings together existing ideas to give a dynamical theory of the electromagnetic field, laying the foundations for later developments such as Einstein's theory of relativity and the applications of electromagnetic waves like fibre optics.
The text provides a logical guide to understanding Newton's laws and the unifying concepts that govern a body and its motion, offering a solid foundation in mathematical physics that explains topics like force, work, energy and the centre mass point of a material system.
