Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A reference compilation of 250 rules of thumb in photonics, organized to appeal to design team members who can't afford costly mistakes or have to convince other team members that their ideas just won't work. These are not new rules, however the authors (both designers) use the scope of their experience and knowledge in the field to collect an array of useful information in the general categories of astronomy, atmospherics, cryogenics, fiber optics, lasers, ocean optics, radiometry, systems, shop optics, and target phenomenology.
