Table of ContentsReviewsFrom the reviews of the second edition: The book contains new chapters, which cover areas of the field that were in their infancy or did not exist at all when the first edition was completed in 1994. ! The second edition deserves to be intensely studied by students or young PhDs who want to pursue the research on quantum properties of light. It should also be a part of every university's library. (Daniela Dragoman, Optics and Photonics News, November, 2008) This is a beautiful and self-contained textbook that unifies new and well-established basic theory and experiment. It provides the readers with ! both the tools of theoretical quantum optics and clarifications on the way features of squeezed states are currently being exploited, as for protocols in quantum information. ! It can be definitively suggested, among the others, to all those who are willing to be safely guided into the theoretical and experimental fundamentals that place quantum optics in a central position in modern physics. (Giulio Landolfi, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1163, 2009) Quantum optics has witnessed significant theoretical and experimental developments, which are indeed concisely and effectively surveyed in the book. It covers a broad range of topics in the field, from the fundamentals to specialized problems of modern research, through a precise, though not introductory, treatment. The book is definitely suitable to graduate students and researchers in quantum optics with a solid mathematical background. ! a valuable and enjoyable tool to complete and enrich an already established knowledge in the field.
