Review
'The Eye and Visual Optical Instruments will not become dated quickly and covers a tremendous range of topics ... this book is an outstanding reference work. It is lucid, gives a good feel for important concepts to anyone willing to work through it, and is a gold mine of practical information. It is a must for any appropriate library and will have great longevity ... I recommend it to anyone with an interest in practical optics.' Nigel Douglas, Optics and Photonics News
'Such a comprehensive book should certainly be bought by all optometry and vision science departments and it would not be out of place in psychology libraries. At a price of £35 (for the paperback version) it is just about in the price range of students as well.' Mark Scase, Bulletin of the Applied Vision Association
'What I am looking for in an optics text is a book that simply explains the principle, builds on the basics and provides example, and problems for the student to practice ... The Eye and Visual Optical Insturments fills nearly all these roles admirably ... The language is beautifully clear, economical and complete in expression, and the diagrams are marvelously simple ...'. Andrew Carkeet, New Zealand Optics
