Abstract
The inertial transformations of the space and time variables have recently been shown to provide a viable alternative description of relativistic phenomena. In the present paper we find the inertial transformations of a force by starting from Newton's law. This allows us to write also the inertial transformations of the electric and magnetic fields. Relative to a moving frame, the Maxwell equations assume a novel velocity-dependent form.
