Description

An Introduction to Practical Laboratory Optics by J. F. James provides a comprehensive guide for students taking laboratory courses in experimental optics.

This book introduces readers to optical instruments and their uses, explaining the basic operation of lenses, mirrors, telescopes, and how to use them to their maximum potential in both laboratory and field conditions.

It covers the laws of geometrical optics that govern the design, layout, and working of optical instruments, as well as interactions with polarised light and spectrometers. The book's focus on description ensures mathematical precision is limited to appendices, which provide detailed explanations of key concepts.
