    This book was developed at Simon Fraser University for an upper-level physics course. Along with a careful exposition of electricity and magnetism, it devotes a chapter to ferromagnets. The topics covered include electromagnetics, magnetostatics, waves, transmission lines, waveguides, antennas, and radiating systems.

    Thumbnail: Drawing of a homogeneously magnetized spherical magnet with exactly computed magnetic field lines. A spherical magnet has the remarkable property that its field outside the magnet is identical to that of an ideal point-like dipole. Inside the magnetized volume, the field is exactly constant and aligned along the north-south axis. (CC BY-SA 3.0; Geek3 via Wikipedia)
