" Lasers is a remarkably well written book that should become the standard introductory text on laser physics." Optical & Quantum Electronic News Lasers is both a text and general reference book with an emphasis on basic laser principles and theory. It gives a complete, detailed and accurate treatment of laser physics, building only on classical models, without requiring a quantum mechanical background of the reader.
