"During the recent three decades, multiple antenna techniques have become increasingly important to wireless radio engineering, leading to their vast exploitation in 4G and 5G. This makes it a necessity to have a modern textbook which includes basic vector analysis applied to the relevant electrostatic and electrodynamic phenomena in an easy to capture way for electrical engineers. While working on modernized versions of my lectures, I discovered Dr. Ida's textbook, an excellent text!"
