Biography
S. Anantha Ramakrishna, Tomasz M. Grzegorczyk
The book has been very carefully produced, with the mathematics and physics accurately represented. … This is an excellent introduction to a fascinating class of materials. All aspects of the interaction of negative refractive index materials with electromagnetic materials are covered, and detailed theoretical derivations are linked with clear discussions of practical issues. It is a book that will be of value both to a newcomer to the field and as a concise reference work for the more experienced researcher.
