This work gives accounts of non-quantum optical phenomena and of
instruments and technology based on them, at a level suitable for
the last two years of an honours degree in physics and for
graduates starting out. Topics covered include the conventional
(diffraction, coherence, thin films, holography) and the less
conventional (etendue, Gaussian beams, laser cavities, CD reader,
confocal microscope) which belong in today's university courses,
for example, to support laser physics. Even the conventional
material has frequently been given a fresh presentation by giving a
tidier-than-usual route through a calculation, or finding
insightful connections with other parts of physics, or simply
avoiding common errors. Problems offer opportunities for checking
the reader's basic understanding, or for taking a careful route
through reasoning, or for checking orders of magnitude. But most
problems contain exploratory and critical material: investigating
possible alternative approaches, asking searching questions about
fundamentals, or solving apparent paradoxes.
