Title: permitivity of freespace constant listed WRONG in book
Product review: The book is good other than....On Pg 244 the book has a MAJOR TYPO !!the permittivity of freespace constant (a universal constant... used in almost every claculation for several chapters) is not correct. they have it equal to 8.85*E^-11 when really it's8.85*E-12In the book's calculations, they use a value k that is equal to the lump sum of 1/(4pi*our constant) which had a correctly calculated value... therfor the answers to their examples are right, but if you plug in their constant value seperately in an equation, your answer will be off.IT TOOK A LOT OF HAIR PULLING TO FIGURE OUT WHY MY HOMEWORK WASN"T RIGHT! DON'T MISTAKENLY OVERLOOK THIS.I have written several e-mails to the editing department of the books publisher, but even with requesting a reply on the manner, they have yet to contact me.
