1 comments about Useful Optics (Chicago Lectures in Physics).
- This book is a decent overview of standard topics. Sometimes he gets a little abstract, particularly in the area of aberrations. Also, you can correctly deduce from the length of the book that it is concise. I think of it as a reference for people who know what they're doing to quickly look-up facts. However, if your goal is to get insight on practical details and tricks, things that don't normally accompany a formal discussion but matter greatly in the lab, then this book is probably not ideal for you. The best I can recommend is the catalog from Melles Griot (amazingly enough, optics catalogs are almost as good as textbooks as they are as sales guides).

1 comments about Light and color (A Golden science guide).
- This is one of the little Golden Guides that is out of print.
It's one of the best however, and was written by the former chairman of the Physics dept. at San Francisco State University. The explanations are clear and concise and for such a small book it contains a lot of good information. For example, I recall the explanations of additive and subtractive color mixing were great since this can be a somewhat confusing topic. Definitely worth your while if you can find a copy.
