For many problems involving surface current densities, and indeed for most
problems involving volume current densities, solving for the magnetic field
intensity using the Law of Biot-Savart can be quite cumbersome and require
numerical integration.
For most problems that we will encounter with volume charge densities, we will
have sufficient symmetry to be able to solve for the fields using Amperes
Circuital Law (Next topic).
