Reviews

The material supplied covers a specific area of electromagnetic analysis that is not usually encountered in optics books. The thorough mathematical analysis of the diffraction process could be of great interest to researchers in the field. The book includes also specific introductory chapters on the approaches for studying light, and specifically the electromagnetic approach. The sections of the chapters regarding anisotropic media are also quite detailed. The book is written by recognized researchers in the field. -Dr. Felix Fanjul-Velez, Applied Optical Techniques Group Electronics Technology, Systems and Automation Engineering Department, University of Cantabria, Santander, Spain
