Reviews

The Handbook of Biomedical Nonlinear Optical Microscopy will be invaluable for anyone who plans to enter this complex and rapidly developing field and it will be a useful reference for experienced researchers as well. -- Journal of Biophotonics A guide for the field of nonlinear optical spectroscopy and microscopy has emerged with the publication of a conceptually interesting, information-rich, well-written, comprehensive, current, and eminently practical handbook. It deserves a place on the bookshelf of every researcher considering or conducting biomedical optical studies. --William W. Mantulin, Journal of Biomedical Optics Professors Masters and So have done an excellent job organizing the chapters of this book and choosing the scientists, whose contributions are excellent. The first part is a must read. The way the book is written, even if the reader wants to focus only on the applications presented, it is possible to understand the application chapters as stand-along papers as they are edited to contain clear, detailed text, with the figures and supporting references one expects from a handbook. I strongly recommend this book to scientists with any scientific background who are involved with nonlinear microscopies. -- Dr. Susana A. Sanchez for Microscopy and Microanalysis

It should be in all University librares...this book, with chapters on theory and practice, will be very useful for the next-even this-generation of cell imaging, and we can all expect to be delighted with the aesthetics as well as the utility of the results! Jack Cohen Biologist
