Synopsis:

Optics as a subject has evolved dramatically in recent years, with many applications throughout science and technology.

From the Publisher: A modern introduction to optics, based on wave concepts. This second edition has been fully updated, the early treatment of Fourier theory having been expanded to simplify later chapters. Covers the basic concepts of geometric optics, interference, and diffraction, and provides an introduction to lasers, holography, and the generation and detection of light. Includes much new material on modern optics, and emphasizes physical concepts, revealing the relations to other disciplines. Each chapter provides examples and exercises, notes and numerical answers being collected at the end of the book.
