Complete coverage of optics information for clinicians
Geometrical and Visual Optics: A Clinical Introduction, 2e is a comprehensive introduction to the optical principles upon which clinical practice is based. Among the features of this student-friendly textbook are:
- Self-assessment questions at the end of every chapter
- Comprehensive practice examinations
- Workbook-style approach teaches students a problem-solving methodology
- Avoids unnecesary mathematics
Klappentext zu „Geometrical and Visual Optics “
A COMPREHENSIVE, LEARNER-FRIENDLY INTRODUCTION TO CLINICAL OPTICSA Doody's Core Title for 2015.
Geometrical and Visual Optics , Second Edition is a rigorous, yet highly accessible text that expertly combines basic optics with clinical applications in a way that brings key optometry topics to life. It emphasizes a vergence approach to geometrical and visual optics,reinforcing its fundamental utility in clinical practice. Featuring an open, workbook-style design, the book avoids unnecessary math and focuses on those optical concepts and problem-solving skills that are the cornerstones of contemporary clinical eye care.
If you are an optometry student who wants to gain a complete, intuitive understanding of geometrical and visual optics, Geometrical and Visual Optics belongs on your reference shelf.
FEATURES
In-depth coverage of geometrical and visual optics spans the full spectrum of topics, from refraction at spherical surfaces, to thin and thick lenses, to depth of field, ametropia, magnification, retinal image size, and reflection
Focus on the vergence approach provides a conceptual paradigmfor the book and underscores its strategic application in clinical practice
Valuable chapter on basic terms and concepts reviews light sources, rays, and pencils; vergence; and refraction and Snell's law
Primary emphasis on core concepts, with a minimum of formulae and superfluous mathematics
Chapter-ending self-assessment problems of varying complexity--with worked-out answers--and two comprehensive practice examinations with answers
Exceptional pedagogy, including concept-clarifying figures and chapter summaries with key formulae
PRAISE FOR DR. STEVEN SCHWARTZ:
Like his popular book, Visual Perception: A Clinical Orientation , Dr. Schwartz offers a foundational optics text for eye care professionals in training and those seeking a concise review. Dr. Schwartz's contributions to our collective success remain unmatched. -- Jeff Rabin, Optometry and
