Thud! from Terry Pratchett
KoomValley? That was where the trolls ambushed the dwarfs, or the dwarfs ambushed the trolls. It was far away. It was a long time ago.

I bought "Modern Optics" as a recommended text for an optics course. This is not a book on geometrical optics, it deals with electromagnetics. What I love about this book is that is it full of information, not once has it left my desk since I purchased it.

Topics covered include light propagation, interference, thin-film layers, diffraction, holography, lasers, ray optics and many more. For such a small book, it packs a large punch.
