'Leonhardt's book is an important contribution to the literature ... In summary, Leonhardt's book is recommended to anyone - beginner, intermediate, or advanced - who has an interest in quantum optics, in fields having analogs to quantum optical phenomena, or in quantum mechanics in general.' John Hornstein, Optics and Photonics News '... the book will be a useful addition to experts and research students working in quantum optics.' Stephen Barnett, Contemporary Physics 'This book is the first to give a detailed description of this fascinating branch of quantum optics. The book is self-contained ... Graduate students and researchers in quantum optics will find this a fascinating book. It will appeal to anyone interested in the foundations of quantum mechanics or more general problems of quantum measurement.' B. Kuhne, Optik 'This is a well-written book; it makes easy and pleasant reading for both experts and physicists working in other areas ... a useful reference tool for active researchers and a nice and valuable introduction for (graduate) students who are entering this area.' M. G. A. Paris, Measuring Science Technology --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
Review
"Leonhardt's book is recommended to anyone--beginner, intermediate, or advanced--who has an interest in quantum optics, in fields having analogs to quantum optical phenomena, or in quantum mechanics in general." Optics & Photonics News
"Ulf Leonhardt has produced an excellent book on the topic of quantum state measurement. He provides a sturdy framework for his discussion, while also giving very welcome advice on practicalities--something that can only come from a true expert. As a bonus, the reader gets some very interesting discussion of the structure and implications of quantum mechanics." American Journal of Physics
