This undergraduate textbook presents thorough coverage of the standard topics of classical optics and optical instrument design; it also offers significant details regarding the concepts of modern optics. Two sets of problems appear at the end of each chapter, some featuring detailed solutions. 252 figures. 1969 edition. Unabridged republication of the edition published by Academic Press, New York, 1969.
Concepts of Classical Optics by John Strong An intermediate course in optics, this volume explores both experimental and theoretical concepts, offering a practical knowledge of geometrical optics with a minimum of mathematical detail. 1958 edition.
Optics: The Science of Vision by Vasco Ronchi Unorthodox view of optics by world-renowned scientist covers 17th-century optics, optical systems, acuity of vision, optical image, elements of wave motion, much more. Translated by Edward Rosen. 106 black-and-white illustrations.
Applied Nonlinear Optics by Frits Zernike, John E. Midwinter This text is suitable for advanced undergraduates and graduate students. Its content is presented entirely on a classical basis and requires only an elementary knowledge of quantum mechanics. 1973 edition.
Introduction to Modern Optics by Grant R. Fowles A complete basic undergraduate course in modern optics for students in physics, technology and engineering. The first half deals with classical physical optics; the second, quantum nature of light. Solutions.
