This book is the culmination of twenty-five years of teaching
Geometrical Optics. The volume is organised such that the single
spherical refracting surface is the basic optical element.
Spherical mirrors are treated as special cases of refraction, with
the same applicable equations. Thin lens equations follow as
combinations of spherical refracting surfaces while the cardinal
points of the thick lens make it equivalent to a thin lens.
Ultimately, one set of vergence equations are applicable to all
these elements.The chapters are devoted to in-depth treatments of
stops, pupils and ports; magnifiers, microscopes, telescopes, and
camera lenses; ophthalmic instruments; resolving power and MTF;
trigonometric ray tracing; and chromatic and monochromatic
aberrations. There are over 100 worked examples, 400 homework
problems and 400 illustrations.First published in 1994 by Penumbra
