Electromagnetics and Network Theory and their Microwave Technology Applications

From the reviews: "This interesting book follows a symposium that was dedicated to Peter Russer on the occasion of his 65th birthday and retirement. ... The book consists of 22 chapters, and is so extensive and thorough ... . it will be of interest to a great variety of readers, from graduate students to experts in communication systems and microwave sensors and engineers. This book can be used as an essential reference for the growing field of electromagnetics and network theory and its microwave applications." (Christian Brosseau, Optics & Photonics News, May, 2012)
