Book Reviews

wave propagation of light and covers the phenomena of polarization, diffraction, interference, etc., starting at a fairly elementary level and approaching a level at which the reader would have the basic foundation to investigate such advanced phenomenaascoherence,diffractiontheory of aberrations, modulation transfer function, the concept of spatial filtering, optical information processing, etc. The interaction of light with matter is discussed briefly, with particular emphasis on scattering, absorption, secondary emission, Zeeman, Kerr and other effects. This is followed by a treatment of the geometrical
