This book helps you to find the most effective field calculation technique for any given set of parameters. The text pays particular attention to its PC-based implementation code, the Multiple Multipole Programs (MMP). It reviews the standard theories of electrodyamics, including Coulomb-Ampere, Maxwell, and post-Maxwellian theory. Coupled with an in-depth examination of GMT and the MMP code, these discussions give you the know-how to combine the various techniques, develop new codes, and generalize methods to best fulfill your computational needs.
