    • Outstanding Book!
Format: Paperback
I enjoy the technical and mathematical depth on optics in this book. This book is suited for someone who possesses an intermediate to advanced knowledge in EM theory and some understanding of optics at the advanced undergrad level. The only area it falls short is relying only on classical method arguments and does not delve into quantum mechanical effects in metals and crystals. But still an excellent book. ... show more

    • Deeply Revealing
Format: Paperback

    • A Classic in the Science of Optics
I read this book in the late sixties, when some of my fellow engineers built and tested an acoustic lens for a developmental company. Born & Wolf were well-acquainted with antenna aperture theory, and were among the first to write that the human eye could resolve 5X better than aperture theory would predict. This they credited to involuntary eye movements called flicks and saccades, which when combined with the brain's ability to do signal processing, was able to produce much better resolution than would have been predicted by the diameter of the retinal rods. In many ways the book gives testimony to God's wonderful gift of vision with color, depth, clarity, and order. ... show more
