    I had a course on Optics in my first year in University with this book. The book has lots of examples and is very “wordy”. I suspect the author hoped to make it a reference as well as a study book. The number of photos in “Optics” is unusually high for a Physics book. I wouldn’t mind if some of those were colour photos, but then again it would have made the book less affordable. Topics include:

    Mathematics of Waves
    Light
    Geometrical Optics
    Polarization
    Interference
    Diffraction

    Overall, I would say that this was a good book. Ideal for people who prefer long explanations.
