The book originated as lecture notes that Jackson prepared for teaching graduate-level electromagnetism at McGill University.[1] Intended for graduate students, and often known as Jackson for short,[2] it has been a standard reference on its subject since its first publication in 1962.[3][4][5] A 2006 survey by the American Physical Society (APS) revealed that 76 out of 80 U.S. physics departments taught graduate students electrodynamics using this book.[6] Advanced topics treated (in the first edition) include magnetohydrodynamics, plasma physics, the vector form of Kirchhoff's diffraction theory, special relativity, and radiation emitted by moving and colliding charges.[6] According to many students and professors, a major problem with the first edition of the book was how mathematically heavy the book was, which distracted students from the essential physics. Since then, many issues have been addressed. More insightful discussions have been added and misleading diagrams removed.[7] Still, the book retains its reputation for the difficulty of the exercises it contains, and for its tendency to treat non-obvious conclusions as self-evident.[8] In particular, Jackson often leaves out the details in going from one equation to the next, which is often quite difficult.[9] Examples are challenging, and the fine points of physics are often left as exercises.[4] Despite being thorough, it is arguably no longer the best text available for students, but remains a well-regarded reference.[4] While the previous two editions use Gaussian units, the third uses SI units.[10] Table of contents (3rd edition){{div col}}
