By what, if any, methods other than by means of the Lienard-Wiechert
potentials can the electric and magnetic fields of a moving point-like
charge be derived? Any references would be greatly appreciated.

You might like to look at:
"Geometric Algebra for Physicists" by
Chris Doran and Anthony Lasenby
In particular, Chapter 7

Try the Feynman-Heaviside formalism for the field of an accelerated
point charge. You can find it in J D Jackson's 'Classical
Electrodynamics' 3rd Ed. |
