N2  - The book is addressed to the advanced undergraduate and graduate students interested in lasers. It encompasses the wide area joining laser physics and non-linear optics. The earlier chapters give a concise account of basic physics on which the operation of lasers depends. Quantum mechanical treatment of the interaction of radiation with an atom and of some important optical processes is presented. This prepares the way, by easy stages, for the formal development lasers
