What is the recommended textbook for upper division EM at community college?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around identifying a specific textbook recommended by a community college physics instructor as a supplement to Lorrain and Corson's "Fundamentals of Electromagnetic Phenomena." The original poster recalls a name similar to "Midwell" but struggles to pinpoint the exact book or authors. Participants in the thread suggest that the book in question might be "Foundations of Electromagnetic Theory" by Reitz, Milford, and Christy. The conversation concludes with the original poster confirming that this is indeed the book they were looking for.

My community college physics instructor thought a certain textbook would be a good supplement to Lorrain and Corson's Fundamentals of Electromagnetic Phenomena. I was looking at something at the time and didn't pay enough attention, so now I don't remember exactly any of the authors, although I think I'd recognize them if I saw them. I thought one of the three names was something like "Midwell" but that's not getting me anywhere. Anyone know what book this might have been? I realize that's not much to go on. Feel free to comment on other books.

Thread 'Ashcroft and Mermin: revised edition'

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!
