This is a very comprehensive and well organized book on optics. It captures the most essential aspects of modern optics and is a great resource and reference for anyone studying or interested in optics. A must have. * Lukas Novotny, Professor of Photonics, Photonics Laboratory, ETH Zurich * Classical wave-optics was my first love, and I am sure Charles Adams and Ian Hughess book will be responsible for many cases of love at first sight among younger readers. It is a rich blend of useful computer outputs with the results of the beautiful methods developed in the 19th century by scientists, whose only option was to be smart, since they had no computers. * Alain Aspect, Augustin Fresnel Professor at Institut d'Optique Graduate School, Universite Paris Saclay * The book is appropriate for upper-level undergraduate optics courses. It would also serve as a handy reference text for graduate-level research students * Martha- Elizabeth Baylor, Physics Today *
