We present an introduction to spacetime algebra that emphasizes its power as a tool for the study of electromagnetism. We carefully develop this natural algebra of the Minkowski spacetime geometry, with a focus on its intrinsic complex structure.

We introduce a relativistic splitting structure as a means to map equations of electromagnetism from curved four-dimensional space-time to 3-dimensional observer's space. We focus on mathematical structures that are motivated by the physical theory.

Here we shall formulate the variational optimum principle for electromechanical systems of arbitrary configuration, in which electromagnetic processes are going on. The principle is generalized for systems described by partial differential equations.
