During recent years, an increasing amount of academic research has focused on older people with a particular emphasis on settings, places and spaces. This book provides a comprehensive review of research and the policy area of 'ageing and place'. An insightful book on an important topic, Andrews an[...]

Building upon the photonics knowledge based formed in Volume One, Volume Two focuses on nanophotonic structures and materials. The volume addresses cavity photonics, cold atoms and Bose-Einstein condensates, displays, E-paper, grapheme, integrated photonics, liquid crystals, metamaterials, micro- a[...]

The first of the four Photonics volumes discusses the basic physical principles underlying the technology and all applications of photonics from statistical optics to quantum optics. The topics discussed in this volume are: Photons in perspective; Coherence and Statistical Optics; Complex Light and [...]

This fourth volume in a series of books on photon science focuses on the underlying principles and practical applications of biomedical photonics, spectroscopy, and microscopy. Though it addresses broad topics in photonics, the book is primarily concerned with biophotonics, fluorescence and phospho[...]
