About the Book

This book is a text for the study of the classical (i. e. nonquantum) theory of charged particles. The application of the theory is well known in electron optics, particle accelerators, radiation from electron beams, and other fields. But the fundamentals of it are usually hidden in a cloud of uncertainty and confusion. In view of the importance of its applications, such a situation is highly unsatisfactory. The text is designed to teach primarily these fundamental aspects of the theory, while applications are restricted to the illustrations of points of principle...The interested reader will soon find that this is an unusual book in several respects. It cuts across many disciplines of theoretical physics which are ordinarily neatly separated and treated in different books: classical mechanics, electrodynamics, special relativity and general relativity, not to mention a little history and philosophy. It is unusual also in that it deals with elementary notions from an advanced point of view and with deeper questions usually left for high-brow treatments.

Table of Contents:
* Philosopy and Logic of Physical Theory * A Short History of the Classical Theory of Charged Particles * Foundations of Classical Mechanics * The Maxwell-Lorentz Field * Electromagnetic Radiation * The Charged Particle * Generalizations * The Relations of the Classical Leorentz-Invariant Charged-Particle Theory to Other Levels of Theory * The Theorys Structure and Place in Physics * The Space-Time of Special Relativity * The Space-Time of General Relativity

About the Author :
Fritz Rohrlich has conducted intensive research on quantum electrodynamics and on the classical theory of the electron. A professor of physics at Syracuse University, Dr. Rohrlich has also taught at the University of Iowa, Princeton University, and Cornell University. He received his Ph.D. from Harvard University and did post-doctorate work at the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton. Dr. Rohrlich is co-author of The Theory of Photons and Electrons (Springer-Verlag, 1976) and the author of From Paradox to Reality (Cambridge University Press, 1987). His current research interests are in the foundations of quantum mechanics and the philosophy of the physical sciences.
