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 'Hassani's books on Mathematical Physics/Methods'

By looking around, it seems like Dr. Hassani's books are great for studying "mathematical methods for the physicist/engineer." One is for the beginner physicist [Mathematical Methods: For Students of Physics and Related Fields] and the other is [Mathematical Physics: A Modern Introduction to Its Foundations] for the advanced undergraduate / grad student. I'm a sophomore undergrad and I have taken up the standard calculus sequence (~3sems) and ODEs. I want to self study ahead in mathematics...
