Abstract

An attempt is made to illustrate the relevance of the study of electromagnetics to the modern soceity. At present, the entire field is shifting rapidly toward important commercial applications in high-speed communications and computing that touch everyone in their daily lives. Ultimately, this will favorably impact the economic well-being of nations as well as their military security.
