Editorial Reviews
Review
Praise for the first edition. . . . . .highly recommended for its comprehensive state-of-the-art fundamentals of optical fibers and cables. The numerous formulas, sketches, diagrams, tables and technical exposition will be a handy guide for network system, optical and electooptical engineers, and those involved in the design, production and installation of fiber optic cables.
---Applied Optics
Dr. Murata. . .is a well known expert in the field of fiber optics. . .His book is a good source of information on the design and implementation of optical fiber.
