Fringe scanning techniques, now renamed heterodyning or phase shift interferometry, are covered in a completely rewritten chapter. New chapters have been added to cover wavefront fitting and evaluation as well as holographic and Moire methods. The chapter on parameter measurements has been completely rewritten and an appendix added suggesting appropriate tests for typical optical surfaces.

"ABOUT THE EDITOR
Daniel Malacara, PhD, obtained his BSc in physics from the National University of Mexico, his MSc and PhD in optics from the University of Rochester.
He then joined the Institute of Astronomy of the National University of Mexico.

In 1972, Dr. Malacara, along with Guillermo Haro, founded the Instituto Nacional de Astrofisica, Optica y Electronica in Tonantzintla, Mexico, where he stayed as Technical Director until 1978.

In 1979 he returned to the National University of Mexico to assist in the founding of the Centro de Investigaciones en Optica, where he remained as first General Director until 1989.

He was also a founder and the first president of the Academia Mexicana de la Optica.

He is a fellow of both the Optical Society of America and the International Society for Optical Engineering.

In 1987, he was elected vice-president of the International Commission for Optics and has been a member of the Board of Governors of the International Society for Optical Engineering since 1988.

In 1989, he was appointed to the Rudolf and Hilda Kingslake Chairin Optical Engineering at the Institute of Optics of the University of Rochester.

The author and editor of several books in optics, Dr. Malacara's best know book is Optical Shop Testing."

"..... New and revised chapters discuss:
* Phase shift interferometry
* Wavefront fitting and evaluation
* Holographic and speckle tests
* Moire and fringe projection techniques
* Parameter measurements

Also, three UPDATED AND CONDENSED APPENDICES PRESENT USEFUL MATHEMATICAL AND OPTICAL background material, including appropriate tests for typical optical surfaces, useful null testing configurations, and additional references."
