Goldstein (electrical engineering, University of Florida) covers the classical optical field, the classical and quantum theory of radiation by accelerating charges, and applications, in this second edition of a text featuring new chapters on anisotropic materials, the Mueller matrix, and devices and components. Beginning with the wave equation and the polarization ellipse, the book then offers new information on the nature and description of polarized light and its interaction with polarizing elements. Applications in electro-optical modulation and reflection from metals are examined.
