Linear Systems, Fourier Transforms, and Optics
A complete and balanced account of communication theory, providing an understanding of both Fourier analysis (and the concepts associated with linear systems) and the characterization of such systems by mathematical operators. Presents applications of the theories to the diffraction of optical wave-fields and the analysis of image-forming systems. Emphasizes a strong mathematical foundation and includes an in-depth consideration of the phenomena of diffraction. Combines all theories to describe the image-forming process in terms of a linear filtering operation for both coherent and incoherent imaging. Chapters provide carefully designed sets of problems. Also includes extensive tables of properties and pairs of Fourier transforms and Hankle Transforms.

Introduction to Adaptive Optics
Adaptive optics systems and components have achieved a level of sophistication and simplicity that goes beyond traditional applications in astronomy and the military and into developments in medicine, manufacturing, and communications. This book was written for those interested in the multidisciplinary technology and those who need a broad-brush explanation without wading through thousands of journal articles. It follows the structure of a one-day tutorial taught by the author, including humor and sidebars of historical material.
Optics
Optics clearly explains the principles of optics using excellent pedagogy to support student learning. Beginning with introductory ideas and equations, K.K. Sharma takes the reader through the world of optics by detailing problems encountered, advanced subjects, and actual applications. Elegantly written, this book rigorously examines optics with over 300 illustrations and several problems in each chapter. The book begins with light propagation in anisotropic media considered much later in most books. Nearly one third of the book deals with applications of optics. This simple idea of merging the sometimes overwhelming and dry subject of optics with real world applications will create better ...

Modern Optics
Modern Optics is a fundamental study of the principles of optics using a rigorous physical approach based on Maxwell's Equations. The treatment provides the mathematical foundations needed to understand a number of applications such as laser optics, fiber optics and medical imaging covered inan engineering curriculum as well as the traditional topics covered in a physics based course in optics. In addition to treating the fundamentals in optical science, the student is given an exposure to actual optics engineering problems such as paraxial matrix optics, aberrations with experimentalexamples, Fourier transform optics (Fresnel-Kirchhoff formulation), Gaussian waves, thin films, photonic crystals, surface plasmons, and fiber optics. Through its many pictures, figures, and diagrams, the text provides a good physical insight into the topics covered. The course content can bemodified to reflect the interests of the instructor as well as the student, through the selection of optional material provided in appendixes.
Robert Shannon and Roland Shack
This volume is presented as a tribute to "two icons from the world of optics"--in the words of editors Harvey (Center for Research and Education in Optics and Lasers, U. of Central Florida) and Hooker (electrical and computer and engineering, U. of Colorado)--both of whom have been affiliated with the Optical Sciences Center at the U. of Arizona. Twenty-one papers from a tribute conference, some highly technical and others more personal, detail the honorees contributions to optics and optics education. These are followed by 45 journal article reprints authored by Bob Shannon and Roland Shack or their students in the technical areas of optical design and analysis, image evaluation, applications of the marginal ray height--chief ray height diagram, optical testing, optical fabrication, phased telescope arrays, aberration theory, propagation effects in the atmosphere, and diffraction/surface scatter phenomena. Finally, 14 short, informal "anecdotes and accolades" of the two scientists are presented from the conference and elsewhere. Annotation :2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).
