Features: This book is one of the series "Physics Series from Peking University," written by the author based on more than 30 years of teaching experience. It covers topics such as the fundamentals of classical electrodynamics, electrostatic problems, static magnetic problems, the propagation of electromagnetic waves, the excitation of electromagnetic waves, the fundamentals of special relativity, relativistic physics, the electromagnetic field of moving charges, and the effects of media on electromagnetic waves. Unlike existing textbooks on electrodynamics, this book is positioned as a concise tutorial, where "concise" refers to the selection of refined content, and "clear" emphasizes teaching techniques or artistry. The author has retained the systematic nature of the theory and the clarity of fundamental concepts, considering the characteristics of foundational course teaching. The book includes exercises and reference answers, as well as the author's instructions and reflections on teaching this course. This book can serve as a textbook for the electrodynamics course in physics departments of higher education institutions.
