Optics and Lasers is an introduction to engineering and applied optics,
including not only elementary ray and wave optics, but also lasers,
holography, copherence, fibers, and optical waveguides. It stresses
physicalprinciples, applications, and instrumentation. It will be most
usefull to the practicing engineer or experimental scientist, graduate
student, or advanced undergraduate. It contains more than enough
material from which to selelct the core of an introctory optics course
and sufficientto form the bulk of a more advanced course.
