description This graduate-level text discusses from first principles the background theory of various effects of quantum optics, introduces students to the main ideas of quantum optics as clearly as possible, and teaches the mathematical methods used by researchers working in the fields of quantum and atom optics. It contains numerous valuable derivations and calculations that are often hard to find in scientific articles and other texts on quantum optics. The book provides a useful starting point for those interested in learning more.
