Explore how light travels through crystals with a clear, practical approach. This guide presents an accessible path into the optical indicatrix and how it governs the transmission and polarization of light in anisotropic media.
Designed to help students and curious readers grasp a complex topic, the work emphasizes a simpler, more intuitive treatment of refraction in crystals. It connects historical methods with modern understanding, and it lays out how crystal symmetry shapes optical behavior without overwhelming math.
Ideal for readers of advanced crystallography and optical physics, as well as students seeking a solid, readable introduction to crystal optics.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book discusses the evolution of how we perceive light. The author presents a theory of light propagation that is consistent with the laws of refraction. It examines the ideas of Fresnel and other notable physicists to provide a detailed analysis of the wave-surface for biaxial crystals. The author presents an alternative method of generalisation and a process of geometrical reasoning that can be used to derive the form of the wave-surface, using simple hypotheses relative to the general characters of undulations. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
