The topics in the book include magnetohydrodynamics, plasma physics, the vector form of Kirchhoff's diffraction theory, special relativity, and radiation emitted by moving and colliding charges. Jackson's choice of these topics is aimed at students interested in theoretical physics in general and nuclear and high-energy physics in particular. The necessary mathematical methods include vector calculus, ordinary and partial differential equations, Fourier series, and some special functions (the Bessel functions and Legendre polynomials). Additionally, it also touches upon the Stokes parameters, the Kramers–Kronig dispersion relations, and the Sommerfeld–Brillouin problem.
