Theory of Dielectrics: Dielectric Constant and Dielectric Loss

Physicists, chemists, and electrical engineers are all interested in the properties of dielectric materials, though with different purposes in mind. This book is intended to give a systematic account of the theory of dielectric properties, and thus to provide a background against which applications can be made. It seldom requires the reader to have a knowledge of mathematics greater than is implied by an acquaintance with calculus, and the reader is assumed to have a certain elementary knowledge of atomic and molecular physics, statistical mechanics, and electrostatics.
