He proposed that light is an undulation in the same medium that is the cause of electric and magnetic phenomena. The unification of light and electrical phenomena led him to predict the existence of radio waves. Maxwell is also regarded as the founding scientist of the modern field of electrical engineering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHis discoveries helped usher in the era of modern physics, laying the foundation for such fields as special relativity and quantum mechanics. Many physicists regard Maxwell as the 19th-century scientist having the greatest influence on 20th-century physics. His contributions to physics are considered by many to be of the same magnitude as the ones of Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this original treatise Maxwell introduces the best of his mind in seven parts, to include:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePART I.-INTRODUCTORY. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePART II. - ON ELECTROMAGNETIC INDUCTION. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePART III. - GENERAL EQUATIONS OF THE ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePART IV.- MECHANICAL ACTIONS IN THE FIELD. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePART V. - THEORY OF CONDENSERS. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePART VI. - ELECTROMAGNETIC THEORY OF LIGHT. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePART VII. - CALCULATION OF THE COEFFICIENTS OF ELECTROMAGNETIC INDUCTION.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9781714973866\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover - 9781714973866","offer_id":58273262534981,"sku":"9781714973866","price":44.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/e28995f0-fd90-42c4-96d6-f047b239a876.jpg?v=1781496302","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/a-dynamical-theory-of-the-electromagnetic-field-von-james-clerk-maxwell","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
