Product Description
Bridging the gap between electric circuits and electronmagnetics, Ulaby's book leads users from familiar concepts into more advanced topics and applications. Earlier and heavier emphasis placed upon dynamics, permits coverage of practical applications in communication systems, radar, optics and solid state computers.FEATURES/BENEFITS * NEW--Over 370 chapter-end problems. * Offers users more opportunities to practice applications, and test their understanding of chapter concepts. * NEW--Accompanying CD-ROM. * Provides readers with complete sample solutions for 45 chapter-end problems selected from and identified in the text, and enables them to generate a high-quality print of Smith Chart for use with Logical organization--Begins coverage with transmission lines. * Presents a natural bridge between familiar circuits material and new electromagnetics material. More emphasis on dynamics than statics. Unique coverage of optical fibers and imaging (Ch. 8). * Gives the reader valuable material on optical fibers in wideband communication and optical imaging by mirrors and lenses. User-friendly approach. * Explains and clarifies the physics by using math, and avoids lengthy derivations of theorems. Thorough verification of material.

 Having read more than one or two or ten emag books.... December 14, 2007

...this book is a great investment. Ulaby is kind enough to cover the math - THEN the subject, which unless you're proficient in vector calc, will be important. There are examples - they have answers! This is a wonderful place to start your journey into electromagnetics, particularly if you learn through doing. I really came to understand Maxwell's equations through this book. The only downside (if you could call it that) is the lack of theory, but don't worry - that'll come. You may not be able to derive Maxwell's equations but you can use'm!
Best E&M Book for Quick Reference January 28, 2006

I took EE101 using this book, it covers transmission lines, smith charts, Maxwell's Eqs, the basics... Now I use this book all the time for quick referencing in my other physics and EE courses. I think it's detailed enough for a first course, but probably best paired with a larger volume. The visual design of this book is wonderfull; it has clear, large graphs and diagrams. The example problems are spot on, but maybe a few more would be nice for a beginning EE student.
Very complete, and concise. January 6, 1999

This book covers a good amount of material in a very concise and easy to understand way. I have found it very valable even after the class which used it, has ended. Explanations of the derived priciples are clear and it is easy to build upon them to solve more complex problems.

This is the best electromagnetic textbook I have read or referenced. Nearly every other current and classical EM textbook is poorly written and very abstract. Ulaby has done a fantastic job in writing an easy-to-follow book on an extremely difficult subject matter. The chapter progression is much more logical, starting with transmission lines instead of electro- and magnetostatics as in other books. It is easy to find formulas and the examples and problem sets help to strongly enforce the material. This should be a part of every electrical engineering curriculum, and as an RF engineer, I reference this book frequently.
Very good book! November 13, 2008

This book along with Cheng, Hayt and Buck can help you master fundamentals of electromagnetics. This book is slim compared to Cheng, but it covers all the relevant topics in undergrad EM. This book stands out in CLARITY. Ulaby explains concepts clearly using mathematical tools and later gives physical insight into it.
