Recensioner i media

"The book is didactically well written and can serve as a useful literature for professionals as well as for graduate students in the considered fields. ... The appendix contains useful formulae for various quantities typically encountered in the wave transmission and reflection analyses." (Vladimir Cadez, zbMATH 1347.78002, 2016)
