In a recent issue of this journal, M. Frisch claims to have proven that classical electrodynamics is an inconsistent physical theory. We argue that he has applied classical electrodynamics inconsistently. Frisch also claims that all other classical theories of electromagnetic phenomena, when consistent and in some sense an approximation of classical electrodynamics, are haunted by "serious conceptual problems" that defy resolution. We argue that this claim is based on a partisan if not misleading presentation of theoretical research in classical electrodynamics. Copyright 2007 by the Philosophy of Science Association.
