Optics (M.H.Freeman, C.C.Hull), 11th Edition

Recommended !

This is an authorized replica of Optics (M.H.Freeman, C.C.Hull), 11th Edition This book is pressed by an authorized China local press-hall with good quality. The book is in whole English version except the cover page. So don't worry about the context. There is no Chinese words inside.

In China, the book is cheap. So let's share it. My shipping term will be very fast as my previous delivered packages. Usually 4-7 workdays through express service.

The fact that the subject is alive and kicking after so long is evidenced by the explosion in the latter half of the twentieth century of communications, entertainment, manufacturing, and medical applications all based on optics. However, the basic principles of classical optics have not changed in recent years and we have to go back to 1953 to find a Nobel Prize winner in the field (Frits Zernike for the phase contrast microscope). With optics underpinning so much modern technology, the authors believe that there is still a significant need for a basic teaching text in optics. In fact, if anything the need is increasing in many scientific fields and there is no sign that this will change in the coming years. ...
