When I'm searching for math books I could use for uni I don't find anything.
And if I should find something it's not in german (I do understand english quite good but for shit I hardly understand in my native tongue I'd like to read it in my native tongue Very Happy )
Though I'm way over this by now. As long as it's a language I understand I'm game.

Learning from Jackson atm, Griffiths is an easy read, Landau is a bit heavy and we don't use him that much.

Those 3 are the main books for CED

Oh that's sth I dl'ed from some guys website grinhurt What book did you get?

I use Arfken-Weber: Mathematical Methods for Physicists for most of my math (vector calculus, tensors, integrals, transforms...)

I got this one

Basically I just needed vector calculus, not for the purposes of electrodynamics though. Book is meant for college so as far as I can tell, isn't too heavy, which is exactly what I need.

Yeah, I also love reading in my hands more than on comp... That's why I'd like Kindle or that nifty ADAM tablet from Notion Ink Very Happy (I have like 4GB of various pdf's grinhurt)

Batygin, Toptygin: Problems in electrodynamics...

 Spoiler:
 

Hehehe... that book must be some kind of joke. I refuse to believe that guys with surnames Batygin, Toptygin and Bredow working together on a book is merely a coincidence.

I would have believed, still with a grain of salt, if it were just Batygin and Toptygin. But with Bredow and even as an editor, I refuse to believe that book is serious Laughing

Toptygin is a talking bear in most russian fairytales
Bred is a russian word for delusion, so Bredow in satire, jokes context could mean a bullshiter.

dingo_d be careful if you manage to find it in english Laughing

Laughing had no idea grinhurt But it's true, there are supposed to be very hard problems in electrodynamics that we get for homework\exams...

Jackson is the one known for very complicated problems? I didn't even know you could get solutions to it.

Among others, Jackson is known for it's rigorous mathematical approach, and some don't like it because they can't see the physics very easy...

And there are solutions to almost any book Very Happy

I mostly like the mathematical approach( up to some degree anyway). How are you supposed to see the physics if there is no math? Graphs maybe?. Anyway I will try to get hold of you next time I'm in need of a solutions manual, if it's ok? Smile
