DESCRIPTION:Maxwell’s electromagnetic theory brings shear terror to the h
 earts of many sophomore electrical\nengineers because it requires intense 
 mathematics to understand. But that effort can be rewarding.\nMaxwell’s 
 theory shows us that light and radio waves and electricity and magnetism a
 re all just different\naspects of the same thing. And once we understand i
 t\, we can start predicting it. Today’s cell phones\nand computers would
  be impossible without this understanding. But what about us ‘regular fo
 lks’?\nWhen mathematics comes up\, we pull out our (electromagnetic) cel
 l phones and start texting… Well\,\nthis presentation will give you a ph
 ysical understanding of Maxwell’s theory…no equations at all. With a\n
 few simple animations (intended to inform rather than impress) and intersp
 ersed with bits of ‘Dad’\nhumor\, everyone\, no matter their backgroun
 d\, will walk away with a precious view through a window\ninto the incredi
 bly amazing and beautiful universe of Maxwell’s theory. Those who might 
 be\nprofessionals in electromagnetic theory will also find this presentati
 on useful as we all find occasions\nwhere we need to explain what we do fo
 r the benefit of interested ‘regular folks’.\n\nSpeaker(s): Dr. James
