Book excerpt: This book is not intended to teach you how to apply Weber electrodynamics. The intent is to present a summary of the "field approach" to Weber electrodynamics that we have been developing. The field approach asserts that the Coulomb field is the only real, physical field and that any other "field" is a mathematical function, not a real independent field. This book presents Weber electrodynamics using a notation similar to that used in Maxwell electrodynamics. Differential equations for Weber electrodynamics are presented. Different forms for Weber's force equation over four levels of approximations, from the most fundamental discrete charge body case to the conducting wire that forms a closed current loop case, are presented. An experimental test for Weber electrodynamics is proposed. A prior undergraduate electrodynamics course is assumed of the reader.
