Kjell Prytz is a Senior Lecturer and Associate Professor of Physics, Högskolan Gävle (Gävle University College) since 1996. He has a background as a particle physicist and has worked at CERN, DESY and Celsius. His research focused on the smallest parts, called quarks, and their interactions.
Dr Prytz has been teaching on all possible levels, from the base year to the master level, in practically all fields of physics. In addition to pure physics courses, he has also been responsible for courses in electronics such as microwave and antenna theory.

Based on the concepts of force and energy, rather than the traditional electric and magnetic fields

Includes exercises at the end of each chapter, with complete solutions in the appendix of the book

Enhanced by numerous drawings and illustrations of high quality

Includes supplementary material: [...]
