About this title

Synopsis

The latest edition in the field of physical optics incorporates revisions to the text and illustrations, as well as references to recent contributions to the literature. The historical introduction is followed by detailed information clearly presented on all aspects of the subject including basic properties of the electromagnetic field, geometrical theory of optical imaging, elements of the theory of aberrations and the optics of crystals.

Review

'Principles of Optics is a great book, the seventh edition is a fine one, and if you work in the field you probably ought to own it.' Physics Today

'The seventh edition of this classic optics text is the most thoroughly revised and expanded version since it was first published in 1959. The first chapters lay the foundations of the field of optics, covering basic properties of the electromagnetic field, polarization, dispersion and geometric optics. The chapter dedicated to optical imaging features new material about computerized axial tomography, while a whole new chapter covers scattering from inhomogeneous media including diffraction tomography. The text concludes with the optics of crystals, which introduces the reader to nonlinear optical phenomena.' Max Born and Emil Wolf, 'All-Time Favourites', Nature Photonics
