Professors Cakoni and Colton are Professors of Mathematics at the University of Delaware, DE, USA. They are authors of a number of previous books published together and separately with both Springer and SIAM.

From the book reviews: "This monograph provides an introduction to the ideas of inverse scattering theory in the framework of classical integral equation methods and is intended as an (advanced) introductory text into this particular research field. ... The monograph can serve as a focused record of the essential building blocks of the integral equation approach to scattering theory and is well able to act as a door-opener into the intricacies of the vast body of literature in the field of electromagnetic scattering." (Rainer Picard, zbMATH, Vol. 1302, 2015) "This valuable book is an introduction to qualitative methods in inverse scattering theory ... . The book is accessible to anyone with a basic mathematical background in advanced calculus and linear algebra ... .after having mastered the material in it the reader will be fully prepared to understand the literature on qualitative methods for inverse scattering problems in other areas of application, such as acoustics and elasticity." (Barbara Prinari, Mathematical Reviews, November, 2014)
