Overview

Covers the theory of electromagnetic fields in matter, and the theory of the macroscopic electric and magnetic properties of matter.

New Material

There is a considerable amount of new material particularly on the theory of the magnetic properties of matter and the theory of optical phenomena with new chapters on spatial dispersion and non-linear optics.

Chapter Enhancements

The chapters on ferromagnetism and antiferromagnetism and on magnetohydrodynamics have been substantially enlarged and eight other chapters have additional sections.
