Comments, with reply, on "Comparison of Ampere\´s law (ACL) and the law of Biot-Savart (LBS)" by H.A. Kalhor

The commenters agree with the author of the above-named work (ibid., vol.E-31, p.236-8, Aug. 1988) that the application of Ampere´s circuital law can cause confusion in the minds of students. However, it is argued that section III of the original paper further confuses the issue and creates problems that are worse than the one being solved. In addition several minor errors in the original paper are corrected. In replying, the original author points out that for presentation to students, the treatment in section IV of the original is clearer and more easily understandable.<>
