Classical Electrodynamics captures Schwinger's inimitable lecturing style, in which everything flows inexorably from what has gone before. This anniversary edition offers a refreshing update while still maintaining Schwinger's voice.

The late Julian Schwinger shared the 1965 Nobel Prize for Physics with Richard Feynman and Shin'ichir¿ Tomonaga for their work on the theory of quantum electrodynamics. Kimball A. Milton is George Lynn Cross Research Professor of Physics, Emeritus, at the University of Oklahoma, currently residing in Memphis, Tennessee.
