Books by H. Bateman

Originally published in 1915, this textbook 'is intended as an introduction to some recent developments of Maxwell's electromagnetic theory which are directly connected with the solution of the partial differential equation of wave-motion'. An extensive knowledge and understanding of mathematics is considered a pre-requisite, as is knowledge on the existing theorems surrounding such study.

Harry Bateman (1882-1946) was an esteemed mathematician particularly known for his work on special functions and partial differential equations. Partial Differential Equations of Mathematical Physics was developed chiefly with the aim of obtaining exact analytical expressions for the solution of the boundary problems of mathematical physics.
