Optics in the twenty-first century is a vibrant part of modern physics, with stunning developments in fundamental science (imaging, correlations, and coherence, and so much more), as well as underpinning our technological world, including providing high bit rate optical communications, and precision laser engineering. But, 75 years ago, optics as a...
Born and Wolf was very warmly received from the outset. University teachers quarried it for insights in their courses, researchers used it as a source of rigorous reliable information in optical science, and the resultant excellent sales reflected the real value the world community placed on this treasure.
Here one continues to find in this masterpiece of lucid authoritative writing the most complete account of modern classical optical physics. Born and Wolf remains one of Foreword xi the most influential science books of the past 75 years. Here you will find the most precise accounts of the Kirchhoff theory of diffraction, the theory of image format...
In writing this preface to the anniversary edition, I have drawn on many years of discussions with Emil Wolf and his colleagues, and with Max Born’s son G. V. R. Born (Gus), as well as from the many publications of and about Born and Wolf – but especially from a lifetime of consulting this magnificent book!
