Optics

An understanding of the fundamental principles of geometrical and physical optics is essential for any student engaged in the study of the visual sciences, but the non-physicist needs a text which clearly explains these notoriously difficult concepts in order to apply them to the practical and clinical aspects of vision.

Optics by Freeman and Hull fulfils this requirement admirably.

• A bright, two-color design enhances the text and aids the reader's understanding.
