Book Reviews of Field Guide to Geometrical Optics (SPIE Vol. FG01)

Book Review: Great reference
Summary: 3 Stars

I had this book as a text for a class and as a text book it stinks, I give it 1 star. However it isn't a text book but rather a reference book. As a reference book I give this 5 stars. It is great if you need a little refresher on optics but this is not something to learn optics from.

Summary of Field Guide to Geometrical Optics (SPIE Vol. FG01)

The material in this Field Guide derives from the treatment of geometrical optics that has evolved from both the undergraduate and graduate programs at the Optical Sciences Center at the University of Arizona. The development is both rigorous and complete, and it features a consistent notation and sign convention. This volume covers Gaussian imagery, paraxial optics, first-order optical system design, system examples, illumination, chromatic effects, and an introduction to aberrations. The appendices provide supplemental material on radiometry and photometry, the human eye, and several other topics.
