The well designed illustrations, strongly linked to the discussion, the clear definition of terms and the easy to follow derivations of key equations make this an excellent choice for a graduate optics course. It is also an appropriate choice for advanced undergraduates. This highly recommended modern textbook can both explain the principles and applications of modern optics and stimulate creative minds. Barry R. Masters, Optics and Photonics News This book presents a thorough and self-contained introduction to modern optics, covering in full the three components of ray optics, wave optics and quantum optics. Digital cameras, LCD screens, aircraft laser gyroscopes and the optical-fibre-based internet illustrate the penetration of optics into 21st-century life. CERN Courier
