Recenzje

'This is a fascinating book by an internationally renowned scholar and experienced educator in the field of complex photonics. It offers a well-balanced, extensive treatment of this exciting multidisciplinary topic in terms of electromagnetic scattering and diffraction phenomena in spatially aperiodic structures, with connection to the mathematical foundations in geometry and number theory, and with a view towards applications in optical devices and photonic technology. I highly recommend this book as an informative source for those working in this field and as an inspirational gateway for those interested in entering this research area.'
