Reviews

The quality of this book is really on a high standard and on a pedagogical high level... It will provide a comprehensive overview of the fundamentals within this wide field... What I esteem highly of this present book is the excellent print and the well drawn figures, as well as many small important physical remarks distributed all over the texts... I can recommend this work to students in physics, engineering and natural sciences as well as a good reference for experts. Optik No. 2 (1997)
