Product Details

This is the IEEE edition of a book originally published by Prentice-Hall, Inc. in 1973 under the same title. This particular copy is the first printing of the IEEE 1994 edition. It belongs to theIEEE Press Series on Electromagnetic Waves , the purpose for which is to "publish books of long-term archival significance in electromagnetics."

From the back cover: "This world-renowned classic by Professors Felsen and Marcuvitz continues to abound in timely and useful material—over 20 years after it was originally published. The book contains indispensable information that remains difficult to find anywhere else in the electromagnetics and acoustics literature, and it will be useful for many years to come.

"Of particular interest is Chapter 4, Asymptotic Evaluation of Integrals, which is appreciated and cited worldwide. It contains an in-depth description of asymptotic techniques and formulas useful to both engineers and physicists.

"Key features include:

  • Unified treatment of radiation, diffraction, and scattering problems in electromagnetics, acoustics, and plasma-like media
  • Comprehensive coverage of physical interpretations for wave processes
  • Indispensable information on alternative representations and asymptotics—not found anywhere else!
  • Invaluable coverage of transients particularly applicable to advances in high-speed electronics and extra-wideband radar"
