5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent IR testing source,
By Rick Whitaker (Goleta, Ca USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fundamentals of Infrared Detector Operation and Testing (Hardcover)
This book is the ultimate guide for Infrared Testing. The author is a leading authority in the field and extremely knowledgeable of IR testing. He has presented this in a format that is as close to "hands on" as you can get from a book. I have purchased this book for new hires and experienced physicists alike. The book works not only as an intro but is very valuable as a reference guide. It is written in an easy to understand format and will not overwelm you with excessive math. I find this book extremely valuable in the field.
