Abstract

B A Robson London: Oxford University Press 1975 pp viii + 119 price £5.50 Some decades back Jones and Mueller developed their distinctive matrix calculi for treating polarization effects in classical optics, building on techniques reaching back to Stokes more than a century ago. In this little book the author describes the extension of these methods to the study of polarization phenomena, for spin ½ and spin 1 particles in particular, but with appropriate generalization to systems of arbitrary spin.
