Description

""An Introduction to the Theory of Optics"" by Arthur Schuster is a comprehensive textbook that covers the fundamental principles of optics. The book is designed to provide students and researchers with a clear understanding of the theoretical foundations of optical science. It covers a wide range of topics, including the nature of light, diffraction, interference, polarization, and the properties of lenses and mirrors. The book also includes detailed discussions of the principles of geometric optics, wave optics, and Fourier optics, as well as the applications of these principles in various fields, such as astronomy, microscopy, and telecommunications. The text is written in a clear and concise style, with numerous examples and illustrations to help readers understand the concepts. It is an essential resource for students and researchers in physics, engineering, and optics, as well as anyone interested in the science of light and its applications.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
