Reviews

New optical technologies, many involving lasers or nanotechnologies providing sensitive and compact electronic-like devices, are revolutionizing many fields. Applications of new optical technologies to biology and medicine might be described as in an adolescent stage, where their power and potential can be recognized but are still developing rapidly, and much is yet to come. The Biomedical Photonics Handbook provides outstanding coverage of basic ideas, present applications of these new technologies, and future potentials. The manifold aspects of the field are discussed by a remarkable selection of experts. This handbook can be expected to be a much used and standard reference during the inevitably rapid development of biological and medical photonics. -Charles H. Townes, Nobel Prize in Physics, 1964, Co-inventor of the Laser This straightforward, well-organized book is an excellent reference that consolidates a wealth of information of interest to anyone involved in biophotonics research, teaching, learning or practice. - Optics and Photonics News, Vol. 15, No. 12, December 2004
