In 1976-1977, while I was a graduate student in physics at the University of Texas, I was fortunate to take the required electrodynamics course ("Jackson") from the legendary John A. Wheeler.  Each week he distributed hand-written, mimeographed summaries (originally in purple) of the week's material.  I have preserved these over the years and am now making them publicly available, in the hope that they will be of value to future generations. Topics follow Jackson and include discussion/solution of homework problems, relativity, approximations, etc..  Tutorials require short answers, exams longer.  My answers have been erased.  Apart from a few student-generated solutions sets, I believe this constitutes the entire course material.
