Fiber-Optic Communication Systems 4th Edition

The best book I know of for understanding real optical communications. It's perfect for that. We didn't use this as a textbook in grad school, and I really wish we had. This is the book that contains the right material.

New condition. Good price. Enjoying the book so far.

Very helpful books for anyone with fundamentals in EE but no fiber-optic group. So far I have read only three chapters. Each one starts from the basics and goes to sufficient depths that one can follow the current literature soon after. I would have given it a five-star. I reserve that once I read the entire book.

nice book arrived on time. I thought it was a used book, but it turns out to be pretty new.

great book

I used this book for a fiber optics course learning the material for the first time, and this book is horrible to work with. As many have said, this book is a REFERENCE to the fiber optic material. It should NEVER be used for learning the material for the first time.

This book is quite good book for professional and graduate students. However, might not be suitable for undergraduate students, as it is written in an encyclopedic manner.
