Product Review
"written well and the authors have a nice readable stylethe book scores as a general overview of the subject. It presents useful short summaries of many important concepts" (Optics And Lasers in Engineering, Vol. 35, 2001)
Product Description
This new book presents an introduction to the essential elements of optics and photonics. Optics as a subject, has evolved dramatically in recent years, and is now an essential part of many science and engineering disciplines as well as being commonly found throughout everyday life.
Reader ReviewsI found this book to present a brief overview of the rather large field of Optics. Derivations of many of the equations are omitted and some rather abstract areas are not expounded upon. However as a fast reading overview of the major areas of optics this book provides a good introduction or review.
