Field and Wave Electromagnetics
Textbook Professional Development Technology Electromagnetics Electrical Engineering Engineering Reference Physics STEM Education
David K. Cheng’s Field and Wave Electromagnetics (2nd ed., 1992) is the hardcover engineering reference that serious students and working professionals keep within arm’s reach. At 703 heavily-illustrated pages, this self-contained text walks the reader from electrostatics and magnetostatics right through Maxwell’s equations, wave propagation, transmission lines, waveguides, antennas, and modern microwave techniques—always stressing the physics before the math. Cheng’s hallmark is clarity: vector calculus is reviewed in a dedicated chapter, every new concept is paired with a worked example, and hundreds of end-of-chapter problems are scaled from quick confidence builders to design-level challenges. The result is a book that graduates rarely sell back because it remains useful long after the course ends.
Collectors and engineers prize the sturdy, library-bound hardcover for its durability and clean layout. This copy is in good overall condition—pages are pristine, free of highlighting, margin notes, or dog-eared corners; the binding is tight and square; only a faint mark on the closed page edge betrays its previous life on a university shelf. Because the 1992 printing used high-quality paper, the equations, field sketches, and three-dimensional perspective drawings still pop off the page, making it ideal for both desk reference and late-night study sessions.
Whether you are brushing up for the FE/PE exams, designing RF circuits, or teaching the next generation of electrical engineers, Cheng’s Field and Wave Electromagnetics delivers the concise explanations, physical insight, and problem-solving toolbox that modern texts often lack. Grab this affordable, gently-used edition while it is still available—hardbound copies in clean condition are increasingly scarce and routinely command premium prices on engineering resale markets.
