Recenzje

"This book gives a comprehensive and up-to-date account of the very active field of organic nonlinear optics. It contains a valuable collection of tables, figures and formulas. It should serve as a standard reference for physicists, chemists and optical engineers who are active participants in this rapidly progressing field of endeavor."
-N. Bloembergen, Professor Emeritus, Division of Applied Sciences and Department of Physics, Harvard University; and Recipient of the Nobel Prize in Nonlinear Optics
"...An invaluable source of information for all involved in one way or another in this field, as researchers, scientists, engineers, or students, in university or industry...This book has everything it takes to become a classic in the field."
- Michael Canva, CREOL, IOTA, in Polymer News
