Hi Mark,

Jackson's book is the standard text for electrodynamics in physics =
graduate courses.

You might want to try a different book with the same title, "Classical =
Electrodynamics" by Hans Ohanian.  This text parallels Jackson's book, =
but at an undergraduate level.  It is still very rigorous in its physics =
approach, just without the graduate-level math.

Thanks!
