Ingeometrical optics, light propagation is analyzed in terms of light rays which define the path of propagation of light energy in the limitofthe optical wavelength tending to zero. Given the current interest and activity in optical fibers and optical communication, analysis of light propagation in inhomogeneous media is dealt with in great detail.

Updated and revised, this second edition provides a coherent presentation of the basic physics behind lasers, along with some of their most important applications. Numerical examples are scattered throughout the book, and problems are included at the end of each chapter.
