Editorial Reviews

Review

"Among reference sources for optics, none offers this set's depth of coverage across many disciplines: physics, engineering, information processing, imaging, materials, and nonlinear optics. (...) Highly recommended". (A. N. Murrell, New Mexico State University, 2005 sep CHOICE )

"(...) you will find answers to many questions you might have in optics, thus it can be recommended (...) to the libraries of the institutes who have to be up to date in modern optics" (CIE NEWS, 73, 2005, JS)

Electronic version available on ScienceDirect.com
