Learn about Fiber Optics Fast!
Excellent overview of fiber optic technology
Excellent introduction to Fiber Optics
Best Overall Review of Fiber Optics The book was laid out logically, and did a good job of building on knowledge explained in previous chapters.There were one page summaries at the tale of each chapter, which were helpful in allowing you to either skip or skim the text. The glossary at the end of the book was especially useful, as was the end chapter on future trends within the industry.The book was a quick read, and once I had finished it I felt comfortable engaging in a discussion with people much more accomplished in the field than myself. ...

Good starter book The issue of multimode vs single mode is handled too cavalierly. The reader is left faced with an undesirable trait of fibers without sufficient explanation of the eigen values or transmission theory.This is good starter book only.
