We examine the propagation of electromagnetic radiation through a strong
magnetic field using the method of characteristics. Owing to nonlinear effects
associated with vacuum polarization, such waves can develop discontinuities
analogous to hydrodynamical shocks. We derive shock jump conditions and discuss
the physical nature of these non-linear waves
