I'm looking for something that covers similar material to Electromagnetism, Grant and Phillips (Manchester Physics Series), but is shorter and easier to read through - I find Grant and Phillips useful (and will buy it), but could really do with a summary/outline to build on.

Any recommendations that I can check out? :)

It sounds like Nayfeh and Brussel would be at about the same level. This book has tons of worked examples.

Thanks - one of the copies in my uni library is on loan, which has to be a good sign! Will check it out when I'm next in uni :smile:
