Covariant Electrodynamics: A Concise Guide

This Book is an excerpt from a textbook on classical electromagnetism, suitable for advanced undergraduates or beginning graduate students in theoretical physics. It covers Maxwell's equations, their relativistic formulation using four-vectors and tensors, and Lagrangian and Hamiltonian treatments of the electromagnetic field. The book also explores the motion of charged particles in electromagnetic fields, radiation from moving charges, and scattering of electromagnetic waves. Finally, it briefly touches upon the historical context of the development of electromagnetic theory and its connection to the early development of quantum field theory.
