College-level electrical engineering textbook starting from the Coulomb-Lorentz force law on a point charge. Sample problems that reinforce the content are found at the end of each chapter. Includes downloadable excerpts of the textbook...

Charles-Augustin de Coulomb invented a device, dubbed the torsion balance, that allowed him to measure very small charges and experimentally estimate the force of attraction or repulsion between two charged bodies. The data he obtained...
