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.
